    Usa 1776-2008

    These are the copnsequences of the consumption koolaid USA has been living in during the past 20 years. Think about mortgages during the past 2-4 years. Keeping up with the johnsons is a cliche but a great description of the american dream. When teh first guy with a 30k job got the...

    ES 800 "SUPER SUPPORT"...may NEVER go below it

    I see your point, hence my note that sadly this is the flaw of trying to solve a credit crisis with more credit. I guess the difference will lay on the timing of events unfolding. Clearly lowering rates is aiming towards stimulating credit/spending. IMO it's a horse race, if...

    ES 800 "SUPER SUPPORT"...may NEVER go below it

    More really bad economic data is going to unravel. Lots of jobs lost, massive credit card default (this is 20% average revenue for banks that are already being bailed). Solving credit with more credit, all focus on deflation as a buzzword disregarding the inflationary pressure coming by...

    AIG caught having a SECRET luxury resort meeting

    Communication technology has advanced a lot lately FYI. What exactly do "financial planners" or any sales people for that matter, learn about the product they're selling that they could not learn through teleconferencing? No plane tickets, no time wasted on commuting, no hotel rooms, no...

    Would Microsoft come after me...

    Thanks for the comments. I'm geniunely curious about it, not compulsive, however, reading the comments looks like there's just too much room for misinterpretation. Perhaps better to put this thread to rest. AQ

    When are we going to wise up and call the health care industry the SCAM that it is

    Step 0 Tell your fat aunt and lazy nephews to get their butts off the couch and stop watching TV/playing video games 24/7. While at it, tell them to stop eating crap and replace at least a portion of the daily 2 liters of soda with water. The system can better use the HUGE amount of...

    IB data quotes price without volume

    Clean Report today. Real time data worked without a hitch today. Both SierraCharts and QuoteTracker using the IB data feed displayed almost identical charts. During the Globex hours and during the usual downtime of the volume quotes i experienced during the last few days, both platforms...

    IB data quotes price without volume

    Bittersweet report. Sweet first: It's 9:51 pm ET and today the dynamic IB-QT duo went without missing the volume quotes all day long. Compared to Sierra Charts and the data is almost identical. First day in a week, that IB data feed doesn't miss the volume quotes during a full 24 hour...

    IB data quotes price without volume

    Jack, Thanks for your notes. I had to step out for most of the day, i'll run my Sierra-QT comparison tomorrow. One thing i noticed though is that today, the schedule changed compared to previous days. Quotes missing volume started at 5:30 pm ET and normal quotes resumed at 6:30 pm ET...

    IB data quotes price without volume

    Just checked again, volume quotes are missing from 6pm til 9 pm ET. After that time they resume normally. If i try to backfill, to get all the missing volume quotes from 6pm to 9pm, i get absolute rubish. Bunch of flat lines connected on the constant volume bar charts and no bars on the...

    IB data quotes price without volume

    Jack, I use Quote Tracker, and constant volume bar charts for my trading. I can see "Last size" changing on the TWS charts, however, nothing on the main TWS window, nothing on TWS Time&sales window, nothing on QT constant volume charts and nothing on QT Time&sales window. The irritating...

    IB backfill is terrible!

    Kiwi, I thought so, and i insisted the two problems were not related when describing my issue to IB. IB's customer service assured me that the problem would be solved with an updated version of TWS and/or the new hardware platform. I know of people having similar issues running...

    IB backfill is terrible!

    Did the hardware change take place? As i type this post and for the last 1.5 hours i have been getting price quotes without volume. Same problem happening for the last 4 trading days. See details here...

    IB data quotes price without volume

    And as expected, as i write this post, i am getting quotes without volume. Whatever hardware platform changed IB announced for sunday (if it ever happened) DID NOT WORK. So, hoping IB checks these threads: 1. Did the hardware platform change actually happened? If so, it did not...

    IB data quotes price without volume

    I agree. Those messages from IB about the issue being worked on with the new upgrade of TWS just put them in the wrong path towards resolution. I sure hope they work it out, it would be a gigantic step backwards for them to drop the ball on real time data. k, weekend time, AQ

    IB data quotes price without volume

    I'd sooo welcome IB turning this around...however, in my world, realism beats optimism any day, and the odds are against them...in the mean time, i'll keep looking for alternatives to solve my issue. AQ

    IB data quotes price without volume

    Thanks for the link, i read that thread before starting this one. My issue is with the real time data, not only with the backfill problem. I'm just not so sure both problems can be solved or are related to the "hardware issue" noted by IB DAV on the other thread. Two things need to...
