Hello again! Does anyone know a way to automatically login to theTWS from C#? Somebody posted code for automated start and login written In Java, I was not able to make use of it, since it requires a certain library in Java (and I am not allowed use Java on this project) Fredrik

Thank you so much dcraig! I will study it carefully Fredrik

If you use 'jemmy', will the automated login do it all for you, or do you also have to start TWS in a separate call? I am writing in C#, but I suppose there is some way I can solve this anyway. I am curious about that fragment. If you have the time, please post it! Thanks! Fredrik

Hello again! I am still writing on my GUI to TWS. I have posted questions to this forum every now and then, and so far I have got some really useful responses from people here. Now I have come to a point where I need a way to restart the TWS from my own app. I dont see any methods for...

OK, no timestamps... actually I am after some way to detect that the TWS is down. If it is down it should be restarted. I have implemented a disconnection method, but I don´t see the TWS calling it. If my C# app is running, the TWS will freeze if I close it Fredrik

By the way, is there any time stamping in the TWS?

Oh,no need to apologize. I think I´ve never seen such a high quota of useful answers in any other forum on the web. It is really great here!

Thanks!

Noooo, I am sorry. You are right. 127, not 172. It works ! Thank you. It is very much Monday morning over here :-) Thanks and thanks again!! Fredrik

172.19.16.102, is the ip-adress on this machine, as reported by the ipconfig command (executed in the command prompt) I tried 172.0.0.1 as well, but it does not change anything.

Maybe I make some mistake, I don´t know. Anyway my local ip is 172.19.16.102.Under the Configure menu in IB Trader Working Station, I go to "API" and select trusted Ip addresses and enter 172.19.16.102. I klick apply and OK. Then I turn to my own C#-app and klick connect. And the confirmation...

SlideShowBob, I found those settings in the TWS. Thank you! Unfortunately the java message box comes anyway. it says: "Accept incoming connection attempt?" I would like to automate this procedure, since there will be noone around to handle it( except the system) Fredrik

Right now it looks like this, but its sort of besides the point. I wrote the GUI just to be able to test a DLL . the DLL contains all code that directly communicates with the TWS. I will drop the GUI later, when it is time to hook up the DLL to the main program.

Thanks. The settings you talk about.. are they windows settings?

So far, so good! I have written a little app in C#,that receives streaming data from IB. I have also converted it into a DLL that I am calling from a GUI. Later on I will skip the GUI and incorporate the DLL in a larger trading system, that I am writing with a group of friends. Thanks a lot...

When I put these values into the VB-app,things started to work.Now I'll move on to the C# code. Thank´s a lot. Id: 1 Symbol: DAX Type: FUT Expiry:20060616 Strike:0 Exchange: DTB Exchange: DTB currency = "EUR"

Thank's a lot DCraig! I´ll try these values. Fredrik

I already use that vb sample as a model for the app I am trying to create in C#. Although I can study the methods, I cannot use them properly. Even running the VB-app produces errors, since I don´t know what to enter in the boxes.This is one of the error messages I get: 'No security...

Thank´s for all the useful answers I got!. I am now able to connect to TWS, via a control supplied by IB. Visual Studio lets me see a whole list of methods. As a my next step I attempt to call the mehod 'reqMktData() Unfortunately I don't know what values to put in the parameter list. Are...

Thank´s GTG! That worked! I now have a control called axTws1, and the intellisense (in Visual Studio) supplies a long list of methods that I can use. One of them is "Connect()"
