    Day trading a suckers game?

    Yeah, but it's a form of cherry picking. I want to see both good and bad. How a trader gets out of a trade gone wrong is the most important part - the part that deals with risk.

    Interactive Brokers News Feed Streaming API

    It's possible to subscribe to real time news and receive everything (not just per symbol). It's not much different from any other functionality. I don't know what is available, but you can probably do it with the provided sample program. https://interactivebrokers.github.io/tws-api/news.html

    need some help with real-time and historical data subscription

    I believe paper account is using your real account's data permissions(I haven't tried getting data from sim). Yes, 100 lines means 100 stocks simultaneously. By 'reference data' I mean it's not exactly tick by tick . For example, it does not match exactly to what you see in Time and Sales...

    Options Alpha is getting nervous?

    I mean, after so many years, now he starts hedging? Maybe he is sensing a top? Personally, I think many of his clients are oversizing, so he is coming up with a way to make sure they don't blow up. That's the dilemma, how do you make enough money to justify the effort while making sure you...

    Options Alpha is getting nervous?

    Well, I was always curious how premium sellers manage to scale up. Below is a big shift in how Options Alpha has been operating(according to them). He says this will allow him to scale from current 11% (eleven!?) to up to 30% allocation. This is just tail risk hedging. What do you guys think?

    need some help with real-time and historical data subscription

    Common guys, it's IB. You are as likely to get misinformation. @0x00, I think you are missing Network C - NASDAQ. Don't know about #3. Also, you do realize that there's a limit on number of symbols you can subscribe to?
