    TWS API, #N/A error in Excel

    Or perhaps its not the API but actually the TWS version must be for 32 bit. I can't remember, i had this issue 1 year or so ago.

    TWS API, #N/A error in Excel

    If i remember correctly, the API you have to download for a 32bit operating system despite you probably having a 64bit operating system, otherwise it does not work.

    Interactive Brokers Margin account. Equity Trading 4 X Gearing

    Leading on from my question. Account Value $40000 10 minutes before the day session starts. Can I put in an order for $160000 worth of AAPL (4X Gearing) to trade the open? Or will IB security measures limit me to trade 2X gearing on the open only allowing me 4X gearing a fraction of a second...

    Interactive Brokers Margin account. Equity Trading 4 X Gearing

    Hypothetical question. Account Value $40 000 During the day session i go long of approximately $160 000 worth of AAPL. Can I hold that stock all the way and trade it out in the closing auction to get the close price? Or will I be forced to close half of it before then? to reduce my gearing to 2X.

    Hi Tim, thanks for the reply. Appreciated. I will chose fixed commission. What I want to know is if I buy say 1000 AAPL through the API under the fixed commission structure will my total net trading costs be ( 1000 x 0.005 ) + (1000 x 0.0075) = $12.50. Are there any additional fees?

    Market On Open question w.r.t. NYSE and IB Twsdde.xls

    Hi All I read in Investapedia, that from 09:28 to 09:30, for the opening auction of a stock in question, that the NYSE publishes the stock forecast price uncrossing every 15 seconds. Does Interactive Brokers publish this info? Can it be accessed in the TWSDDE.xls spreadsheet? Cheers
