Is there any software that has a native MAC version, but connects to IB for data?

Seems like the CME website is out of date

Quick question about AMP. I noticed on their site that they have their own clearing AMP Global Clearing. But I didn't see them on the list of CME clearing firms over here: http://www.cmegroup.com/clearing/financial-and-regulatory-surveillance/clearing-firms.html Who do they clear with?

There appears to be are many types of options on futures on CME (and on ICE) that are not available on IB. For instance, Short-Dated New Crop Options, and Weekly options on many commodities such as Wheat. The only weekly option available seems to be on Crude. The volumes seem healthy for the...

IB certainly a huge breadth of futures exchanges around the world. are there any other discount futures broker who offer a similar breadth of futures exchanges around the world?

I have a regular day job and can't sit in front of a screen to monitor whether a signal on a particular market turned BUY to SELL or vice versa. Suppose I have a intra-day futures system like this ... 1. If current time is between 9:30 am and 3:45 pm EST, then (a). For each N markets...

robert, how would BATS and BOX options exchange get their liquidity in practice?

CBOE publishes its list of DPM (designated market makers) for underlying equity on its website such as here: http://www.cboe.com/TradTool/Symbols/symbolall.aspx Anyone knows where I can find the list of DPMs for others exchanges - ISE , BATS, BOX, PHLX, ARCA/AMEX ?

jharmon - that's what I did. there's really no other way to create continuous futures in eSignal.

any solutions?

yes, but it is not back-adjusted. I checked with Bloomberg closely. I am interested in back-adjustment to avoid the gaps.

TY # F doesn't back adjust (or atleast that's what I think). I compared both TY # F and ZN # F with Bloomberg's TY1 Comdty - and both of them are not back-adjusted. I'm interested in back-adjustment (ideally proportional / ratio which eSignal doesn't have).

I tried to create concatenated futures contract for US 10 Yr bond futures in eSignal and compared it to Bloomberg. In Bloomberg, the setting I used was 22 days before expiration. Bloomberg automatically includes holidays such as Sat / Sun within the 22 days, but if the day of the rollover is a...

Hi I wanted to ask someone who has done automatic execution of a trading strategy via eSignal alone (based on their Javascript based EFS language) versus MultiCharts' PowerLanguage (that is based on EasyLanguage) particularly on IB (or any other broker). What are the pros and cons of coding...

Hi, I am contemplating to trade a futures system on IB via either multicharts or amibroker taking the underlying data from esignal. I want to develop the system off a proportionally adjusted continuous futures contract. Had a question regarding continuous contracts: 1. Multicharts seems to...

I have been a long user of IB for discretionary trading (around 4-5 instruments) at a time, but I want to move to a automated trading strategy that can trade automatically on 60+ futures markets (since I have a regular job I can't possibly track/trade 60+markets on my own). I have access to...

Thanks, but I am mainly interested in EOD data and QuantQuote may be reasonable for HFT data, but for my purpose expensive.

Hi, a) I have a laptop that has a DVI-DL port (and also 5 USB ports). b) I have bought 3 additional monitors to convert my laptop into a trading station. Each monitor has a DVI and a VGA connection point. Each laptop came with a VGA cable, but no DVI cables. So I need to buy the DVI...

Hi, I'm looking for a data source for US stocks for historical back testing of strategies. My main interest is for EOD data. To avoid back testing bias, I would like to get a database that has 1. coverage of dead/inactive historical stocks EOD prices 2. an associated corporate action...

Are there any prop firms that have matlab / R API for sending orders automatically?
