    Bernie Maddoff may receive sentence commutation

    Dying? Really we're *all* dying aren't we? Like Moe Green from the Godfather, Bernie's probably been dying from the same ailment for decades. As I recall, Bernie was accepting new clients recruited from his synagogue with the unwitting assistance his rabbi. He made fools of otherwise...

    IB Mobile TWS Two-Factor Authentication Delay

    I wish IB would just allow me to use the more mainstream 2FA apps like Google Authenticator and Authy. They're perfectly secure and widely used.

    Is Oanda just a bucket shop?

    That's almost exactly my case. Long term account (2008) with $100 in it. Suddenly I notice a $10 withdrawal last month so I put in a ticket because I thought someone stole it. Turned out it was an inactivity fee for 1 year of no trades. I'm in the process of trying to get them to give it...

    IB Mobile TWS Two-Factor Authentication Delay

    Are you guys using mobile networks or WiFi? I've found that I almost always get immediate notification on WiFi but on the mobile network (Verizon) I never get the notification. So when I'm on the mobile network like at work I have to do the manual authentication.

    Interactive Brokes for futures trading: data, frontend, ...

    I know that in the past IB only provided aggregated tick data but the latest API version is providing apparently true tick data. https://interactivebrokers.github.io/tws-api/tick_data.html I haven't tried it personally since I don't day trade.

    I´m looking programmer for Metatrader4

    Here's something I posted on this site back in 2015 here. One thing that's changed is it used to be $100/hour and now it's $200/hour :D -------------------- "I'm a software professional and I've implemented a some "great ideas" for free for a few individuals. These were ideas that appeared to...

    Trouble Choosing Between Futures and Options

    Go ahead and learn both, after all knowledge is good. For me I found I absolutely suck at picking direction so directional trading on anything is lost on me. Option trading slows down the action and gives me the chance to adjust to being wrong on direction and still make money.

    Combo Bid/Ask Calculation in TWS-IB

    The combo itself has its own market. So if someone has a buy or sell order on the combo then the combo bid/ask takes precedence over the derived bid/ask you'd get from the bid/ask of the legs.

    Trump Orders 737-Max Grounding.... Buying LUV puts.

    *Buying* puts? I'm *selling* puts on LUV and BA. I'm especially interested in BA because commercial aircraft isn't all they do. They're positively a defense/aerospace powerhouse.

    In praise of SQLite

    Yup, it's all I use for my IB API apps as well. I use it mainly for storing my transaction logs for PnL tracking and risk graphs.
