Re: twsapi

开云体育My question is to the moderator of this site.
?
I am a subscriber to this site and I have a
problem.
I get messages from this site as emails. In these emails, you
refer to "files" section at the left hand side of the screen, but I do not get a
menu on the left hand side of the scree. Now, how can go to your web site from
my email to see these files you often talk about in the email I
receive?
Thanks.

Re: Investor RT / IB Interface - a small clarification.

It certainly shows that package has a long way to go. (My opinion, of course.) I'm amazed at how many new programmers and new traders overlook the need for economy of screen space. Most traders never have enough space for everything they want to display. If you're using charts then the trade software really needs only a tiny bit of real estate to do it's job. Minimalism is important here. Much can be learned from surveying the various tools available. Richard |
Re: twsapi: Q to the community: Ping Time
Richard Foulk
} Q: Is there any advantage to monitoring Ping time to the IB Server?
} } My thought is, If communication time exceeds 5000 ms then suspend the } trade invocation portion of the ATS until communication time delay is } more reasonable. } } Your thoughts? } Some kind of verification of timely quotes is important. That's why IB's lack of time-stamping is troubling. Perhaps if enough of us request they add time stamps, they'll look into it. Until IB adds some means of verification it seems the trader should either do it manually, or have his software cross-check with another data source. Ping times don't tell you a whole lot -- unless the network connection is really hosed. But automated system testing is generally a good idea. Richard |

TWS_orderStatus
Robert Carey
开云体育My VB6/Win98 2ed application auto trades US
equities with IB's ActiveX api. I observed that the position size in my system
was frequently double what was intended.
I traced?that bug in my application back to
it's source.
TWS_orderStatus frequently throws 2 replies to one
trade. Each has the same data for price and size. There have been no partial
fills.
I reported this to IB on 7/3.
I wrote a fix in which my interface to TWS api
keeps track of order sizes and their changes. It blocks reporting the second
twitch to the rest of my application.
Watch out for this bug. It will send your app into
a tizzy.

Re: twsapi: Java 1.4 slower?
Carl Erikson
Yes, I have noticed this. It seems like Java 1.4 is
maybe a little more efficient in terms of memory. However, I'm guessing that Sun did something to make the Swing implementation "better" which in turn made it slower. I still use Java 1.3.1. I seem to recall somebody saying something that you needed Java 1.4 for a certain new Swing construct. Not sure if this is true. It seems to work for me using the old Java (and it works faster).

Re: Invalid symbols
bee_jay_61
Maybe the second method works too. I never used 40 or more symbols in
ReqMktData so I don?t know what kind of error message will appear if the TWS checks for 40 symbols. But maybe the TWS checks first for an invalid symbol regardless how many symbols are in ReqMktData. Than it should allways work. You have to try it out. This method is easier than the first one.
