Methinks it gets bought by somebody. The big names all use Citrix.

Heya Peeps, If you can spare an hour, do listen to this Webcast. I think it's perhaps the best I've heard in years. Everyone is home, and on FB, since CV. FB realizes this, and is shaping the "new normal." They broke 3B users for the first time. I found that FB (including Instagram and...

I ended up spawning a separate thread to submit reqMktData() requests to the cycling message loop. It polls the queue for new requests as it spins. Works perfectly.

Hard to believe that Citrix won't be a big winner in all this, with the whole world being pushed to work from home. Citrix enables secure remote cloud computing for enterprises, enabling peeps to connect to seamlessly connect to their work environment--across multiple monitors. I've used it...

@Girija : It is not a subscription and/or stream request; it is a snapshot request. app.reqMktData(100, z, "", True, False, []) ^^^ The "true" means that it's a snapshot request. Just one data point.

Have you done this? I haven't looked at the run() method of the EClient class. I don't know if it reads contracts as part of the message loop, or if they need to be set up in advance, and are read once as a batch. EDIT: find below the run() method from EClient. Looks like the message loop does...

Can't be... app.run() is the message loop, which spins infinitely. Once this is called, the main thread is effectively hung; the execution flow never even reaches the sleep statement. I am already doing this. Note in the example that AAPL is 1000, and MSFT is 1001 in the reqMktData call.

How can new ``reqMktData`` requests be queued after ``app.run()`` has been invoked, and the message loop is spinning? A little background, snapshot market data requests from the TWS API follow this pattern: 1. Create contract object 2. Call ``reqMktData`` to queue request, passing in contract...

Tragic! Coronavirus: Unwanted ale could 'go down the drain' Thousands of gallons of ale will be poured down the drain unless people have it home delivered, a brewery said. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-bristol-51959263

Betcha $1 that there's been at least one spill already that we haven't heard about.

I don't mean to be a drag, but what if a hurricane rolls through the area?

Heh... I'm talking about the retail broker. Renaissance runs their algos on a separate box co-located in a leased cage at the exchange and connected to a server by a short piece of straight fiber. Cost per month is probably 1M or more.

Nothing you can do. In practice, it's impossible to assert your IP. If your algo is running live, they don't even have to hijack it. they can just front-run your orders, and/or mirror your positions as you buy/sell, and realize profits from the smarts of your code. Even at the exchanges, the...

They're pouring QE into everything under the sun (except stocks).

I thought that this was a good video:
