The IB documentation for OCA orders via the TWS API is pretty thin.As with many features, OCA functionality is parallel in the API and the GUI, so reading the TWS docs on this would be a good idea. The OCA string is an identifier assigned by you to group orders together. If an order with an OCA string set is executed or cancelled, all other orders with the same string will be cancelled. -- Elliot |

Re: VB and ActiveX....updateExtended() Method????
BrianL_98
The IB documentation for OCA orders via the TWS API is pretty thin.
The only thing I can find is that the string OCA property "identifies an OCA group." Does anyone know how to go about actually placing OCA orders using this property? Am I supposed to submit two orders, and then change the OCA property to include the order id of each of the orders? thanks, Brian --- In twsapi@y..., bee_jay_61 <no_reply@y...> wrote: --- In twsapi@y..., mickjenks <no_reply@y...> wrote:programmingAnyone know if the updateExtended() method is still part of the and just trying to work my way through this stuff.

Looking for a complete guide/consultancy on setting up a conditional order
ibwin2k
Hi guys,
I am a new IB user, a futures daytrader and have no idea on programming. After looking the simple user guide from IB website, I can do nothing with those sample spreadsheets. I post here to see if any expert here could help me to set up a conditional order and to re- organize TWS presentation. A reasonable amount of consultancy fee will be given. (Price could be referred to similar projects on those online auction website,like RentACoder). Here are the requirements: Futures only, less than 10 symbols from different Exchanges, any type of APIs is Ok (reliabity & speedy are the most important) Within a SINGLE PAGE, in addition to general features as TWS, like Order Status, Account Info, Execution Info, contract Description & Market Data, the most important is, allowing a Conditional order with 2 order types: a Buy/Sell market order, Stop Order with aux. price which is based on avg. Buy/Sell prices, default order sizes are allowed for different symbols. My idea is, Single page to see all info I want, and single click/hotkey to complete in/out, (of course, if cancel/modify, extra key is needed) Anyone interested, please reply here or email to me at ibwin2k@.... Thanks in advance. Regards, Char. |

Extended order attributes and placeOrder() method
mickjenks
Regarding the question in my previous post regarding the
updateExtended() event. To clarify, how does one specify the extended properties such as tif, oca, transmit, etc when placing the order? I don't know how to specify this info with the placeOrder() method so is there another way that this info is specified. I can successfully submit orders from a VB program to TWS, but can yet have the above mentioned extended properties attached to order. Thanks for any help. Mick |

Anyone know if the updateExtended() method is still part of the

Re: TWSAPI: General: Anyone know how to refrence a webpage and read it?
Daniel Rosen
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýIts
easy to do. In VB look at the internet transfer control in the docs (ITC).?
Basically you include the ITC on your form and execute something similar
to:
?
dim s
as string
s = inet1.openurl("html")
?
In C++
you would use the wininet dll.? the ITC is an OCX wrapper around the
wininet.dll.?
?
There
are other techniques using the browser as a control and then reading the
contents (mshtml), but these are the easiest techniques in my opinion.?
Once you have the data, parsing is straightforward.
