TOS freezes every now and then when volatility is high. I'm in Europe and it happen less often for me. My theory, I'm connected to different servers. Not everyone is affected at the same degree. Off-topic: Last week there was a internet blackout in my region. No web surfing, web radio... all...

I'll contact Interactive Broker. It seems they have their own risk model for Europe. Maybe the CME requirements are not the same for Europe clients. Kinda weird...but, we see the figures.

Good question. But I don't know the answer. I wonder if CME will cut the margins once the volatility settles. However, I made the error that I added initial and maintenance. Currently CME is asking 12k for the E-Mini S&P 500. I wonder how Interactive broker can offer it lower. TD Ameritrade...

No, it's in USD. Intraday margin is quite low, while Overnight margin is relatively high. https://www.interactivebrokers.eu/en/index.php?f=40539&hm=eu&ex=us&rgt=0&rsk=1&pm=1&rst=101006100801080808

Hello I'm located in Europe, trading with Thinkorswim but I'm tired with the bad fills and freezing platform. I just checked initial and maintenance margin requirements for the E-Mini S&P500 for overnight and intraday. Is it possible that the requirements are quite different between USA and...

I can't speak for other platforms. But TOS is definitely benefiting from the nVidia 1050 card. TOS Support even suggests to add a line in the config file which forces TOS to use the dedicated graphic card. I tested my setup running only on CPU and CPU / nVidia GPU. The latter runs a lot more...

I found Blount’s Numbahs which is kinda interesting. As I researched I figured out that William is not longer with us. Rest in Peace. Here is an example of his reports. https://mrtopstep.com/blounts-numbahs-monday-spill-26/ I wasn't able to find more information about his 'system'. He...

Thank you Robert. What do you think about the GPU? There is a offer from Asus. It looks very decent. The GPU is a MX110. That might be weak part of it.

Hello I plan to buy a notebook. I use 1 external monitor. Actually only 2 felxible grids are running. Since I trade only one product, I let display chart with several timeframes. 7-8750u CPU should be enough. Right? I'm not sure about the GPU. For instance, a nVidia MX110 is ok? I see...

I'm trading from Thailand. It's nice here. No taxes. But trading hours for US market are a pita. I plan to move to Amsterdam. I love this town. But, as an expat you will pay too much for a flat or house. They have stupid conditions for non - employees. Otherwise maybe an Baltic state. Low living...

Yes, this must not happen. Obviously there was a small effort to test the before the release. Every broker has minor issues from time to time. But this was over the top. Apart from that, TOS is a nice platform. Very adjustable.

They solved the problem. TOS is fast again.

Is your tos runs normally again? Mine not.

There was just a minor update from build 1898.13 to 1898.15 Hope it helps.

Yes, crazy. Why they not roll back till they are able to fix the issue. We are the beta-tester. I guess till the weekend will nothing happen, if at all. No ETA means, they have no clue how to fix it.

Latest answer from TOS: 'so I recommend that you go back to 2gb on the high end as we never want to allocate more than 1/4th of your total. I also recommend that we restart TOS every 2 hours. We should have some fixes for this as the problem is coming from our side of things. No estimation on...

it checks only for updates. Updates normally occur during the weekend. There is no way to avoid updates.

after a hour, more than 3GB. 271MB sounds very low. I thought about 800MB-1.5GB should be normal. TDA said there is an issue with the recent update. Java related. But no workaround yet.

Useless next one please.

Did everyone else face this issue? Deleted usergui, rolled back to an older backup. Nothing helps. TOS support have no clue. Other users on Stocktwits reported same issue. Is this the end of TOS?
