back and glad for it


Stuart Cracraft
 

Hi everybody,

I¡¯m back and also wanted to express my thanks to folks here for helping me to stand-up
automated trading through IB.

I couldn¡¯t be more delighted.

My only nit is that having to run the TWS app on a full dedicated desktop instance and
not having been able to stand up any reasonable thin Linux client is, honestly, my only
disappointment.

Cheers,

Stuart


 



I run up to 6 instances on a single cloud instance.
Just install a window-manager there and x2-go (server) and you get a reasonable facsimile of a thin-client


 

You run 6 instances for different accounts or for one account? Probably 3 accounts with paper and live?

Each container runs one tws-instance.
Six different accounts, individual and (family)-advisor and my ATS-Software.

The GUI of the gateway is either visible on the desktop of the host or hidden in a framebuffer.
X11-software runs inside the containers. The windows appear on the desktop of the host as well.

If you install a window-manager and connect via X2Go, everything (including sound) is transmitted to the X2Go-Client.
