Anyone else w/open position due 2 zero notification from IB HKFE closing 4 typhoon?

Quote from Steve_IB:

I wasn't aware of any problems with HK market data in todays session. Let us know tomorrow if you see a repeat.

TH and go4 - also please let us know if this happening in Market Depth, BookTrader or both?

BookTrader.
(and I haven't opened more than 3 of them).

I don't open Market Depth so i don't know if it is the problem.

This is an ongoing problem. It happens once in a while. :(
 
Quote from gangof4:

yeah, usually closing BT and reopening works- not tonight. i shut it down 3 or 4 times and i still only saw best B/A much of the day (well, my night)...

Or you may try to close and reopen TWS as a last resort.

It seems that Steve and Def have done their homework . What do you think of their response? Would you mind post your audit trail?If you really set the stop order to be triggered at 21747, I think you owe IB an apology and should recheck your evidence next time you decide to make a negative comment about someone or some institution.

It amazed me that you just cannot discard your habit of making allegations without checking the related facts in advance. Last time you said in an ET post that I optimize my strategies from time to time, which turned out to be sheer imagination. I warned you then in that post to be careful and base your words on facts, nothing but only facts, thought you had learned something from that already.....

I wonder whether he knows what he is talking about.

He seems to complain the price shown in TS is not equal to that of IB, but no details given. It may be an issue related to TS or even not an issue at all (he just misunderstood how the program works). Plus I somehow feel he was actually papertrading. That's why the price may not be as realistic as the real trading. :D

BTW his statement is always short and lack of contents. It is already a challenge to understand what he is trying to say.
 
I've had many issues where the tradestation strategy prices don't match actual fills. Once it was because the feed from tradestation was actually a few minutes behind. Other times they just don't match, and I can't figure out why.

But blaming that on IB is just stupid and ignorant. I tried to come up with a better/nicer way to phrase it, but I can't. Complaining about a bad fill is one thing, but complaining that it doesn't match some arbitrary price from another source doesn't make any sense at all. Dude, get a clue!!! IB has their issues, but this has nothing to do with them.

Jeez TH haven't you learnt anything since the last time I had to call you a wanker.


TH, I have said it before and in this thread you have made it clear again.

Not only do you wade in with (as usual) multiple STUPID anti-ib posts but then you attack another poster. And as usual in your attack you show that the only stupid person here is you.



(Think about it TH ... if he was complaining about the fill would he be paper trading? He understands the pricing issue now without your unnecessary attack.)
 
Ninjatrader makes a gunshot noise and pops up over any open application with the IB notification window. Ninjatrader is free for charting with IB.
 
in most cases the slippage is less than 10 points

I can not work out why the slippage is 17 points when the market is not so volitile at the moment

what do you think I should attribute this problem to ?

You received absolutely no slippage from the market.

The HSI is volatile and slippage is common with stop and market orders. However, in this case you did not get any market slippage whatsoever. You were filled exactly where you placed your stop (which is unusually good when trading HSI).

I would ask why do you expect to be filled at 30 on a buy-stop placed at 47 ?????

Joesan :

are you IB guys?

take back your didactical words

I have no interest in your nonsense
 
Fuck Robin,

Now I have to apologize to TraderHerry. Sorry TH ... I was wrong to defend Robin and you clearly were not stupid - I was stupid because I thought that Robin must get it. Jeez I hate apologizing.


TH's right Robin ... you don't come close to getting it.

Here it is ...



Something is fucking wrong with your TS set up !@!!!@ Sit on that for nonsense, fool.

Capiche?
