    Anyone work for a game company? Activision, EA, Epic, Riot...c, etc.

    I don't, but the son of an almost lifetime friend works for Valve. I saw them at X-Mas and the kid loves his job, and the company.

    IB TWS: how to disable order confirmation permanently

    I never turned it off for options trades as I like to double check myself on those, and I see the check box there, the same as I imagine for stock or futures trades. I haven't seen the box in years since I turned it off for my day trades on futures contracts. Sorry I don't know why it isn't...

    IB TWS: how to disable order confirmation permanently

    It's been awhile since I removed it, but I thought it was checking a box in the lower left corner of the popup. Basically it said check here if you want to stop seeing this each time.

    Here's some weirdness for the weekend

    Ok, another mostly cloud free night walking the dog and there it is again. No idea where in the line I started counting, but I was up to 30 aircraft. Again flying what seemed to be at a high altitude and very evenly spaced except for the 2nd last one which was about half the spacing on the one...

    Anybody try Wim Hof method for meditation/breathing?

    I'm still working on both the breathe and hold and silent meditation. After over 3 months I'm finding more of a benefit mentally from the silent meditation. I'm finding my hold times are actually decreasing as of late with the Wim Hof method. I don't believe I'm doing anything different, but...

    Handy Gizmos - Whaddya Got?

    Not sure if they are a fad for exercising or not, but I do see them in use by quite few a people in the fields of exercise science. Our youngest used them for awhile to rehab a hip injury when he was in high school, and it did seem to be beneficial.

    What's the best book on corruption that you've read

    I read this in a Pol Sci class a few decades ago, have been thinking of reading again. I also am debating selling my copy after reading seeing the ridiculous asking prices for the book.

    Anyone else not able to switch between contracts?

    I'll post the link he gave me for changing memory in case it helps anyone else. https://ibkr.info/article/2170

    Anyone else not able to switch between contracts?

    It seems to have worked. As you mentioned probably a function of huge volume increases and not enough memory allocated to handle it in the platform. Kind of sucks as I got out of a trade as soon as I thought something was wrong and missed the rest of the moves. But better safe than sorry.

    They had me increase my Memory Allocation through Mosaic. I'll see how it goes.

    Anyone else not able to switch between contracts?

    wasn't a matter of freezing, price was moving for me, but couldn't switch to other contracts, but maybe related. I'm on with chat now.

    Anyone else not able to switch between contracts?

    I switch between contacts for some of my charts and Booktrader, but all of the sudden I can't switch. I click and it is stuck on the last contract selected. Right now stuck on CL, but trying to change to ES and any other contracts and nothing happens. A bit annoying at the moment with the...

    Government hand and billionaires

    I don't disagree to a point, but I'm guessing most of these people have a fair amount of liquid assets available to them, and at least in Bezos and his wife case, they have sold large share positions in the past to fund his rocket company without much effect. There is no need to do it all in one...

    Here's some weirdness for the weekend

    I don't know, it was at least 24 in a row I saw flying. Could have been more previous to my noticing. A buddy of mine said they should have shown on flightradar24. I didn't realize the flights out to Area 51 actually show on there. Although if it was strictly military they may have the ability...

    Here's some weirdness for the weekend

    Doh! Didn't think of it at the time. I did take a look now following the general direction and I didn't see anything that resembled what I saw or even close. Had to be military, bit still odd to see that many going over, and really had the effect of moving fast.

    Here's some weirdness for the weekend

    I was out walking the dog tonight and being a pilot and someone who enjoys a clear sky I was looking up at the stars and a couple of airliners. I then noticed a plane that looked higher up and seemed to be hauling ass. As I watch I notice another coming behind on the same path. Then I realize...

    Government hand and billionaires

    I was looking at the list of the top 15 wealthiest in the U.S. and was just noticing how so many of them are so called philanthropists. Then there are the ones on it and a few below who have signed the Giving Pledge of their own concoction. How about if instead of the government, i.e. taxpayers...
