Need reconnect strategy (getting a little desparate)
I thought that I had a reliable strategy for handling disconnects, but
apparently not. After working for a month, my approach failed earlier
today. I'd like to hear how other people are doing this

Re: CME data problem
There are two dates in the line, 4/18 and 4/17.
The second date relates to the trade entry time.

Msg TICK_PRICE/SIZE "size" multiplier
Hi,
I notice that the size field in the incoming messages
TICK_PRICE and TICK_SIZE seem to take on different
multipliers for different tick types and contracts.
Is there a field to determine this

Re: CME data problem
Ignore the question please. The "date" is actually referring to the
next trading day for all sells
after 2pm. Ex. all sells on 4/17 after 2pm have a datestamp of 4/18.

CME data problem
This may not be the right forum to ask such question, but IIRC some folks here also collect CME data.
I ftp-ed the 4/18 data, in the file I see a line:

Re: BId/Offer not updating
When you say that the bid or ask prices freezes, do you mean the ticker
stops sending quotes? Do the quotes start coming again after some amount
of time?

BId/Offer not updating
I've been using the paper trading account to test various strategies
and I've found several occasions where just the Bid or the Offer price

Re: How to run headless (under Linux)?
In case anyone else needs to do this under Linux, another approach is to
use Xvfb, the 'X frame buffer' server. Xvfb does not require having a

You can setup addtional login names for your account on IB's
