9.67 Api Release

Just pushed the changes through for the 9.67 api release – I just did the mechanical integration of changes, and haven’t thoroughly tested anything yet. If you run into any problems, please submit patches / bug reports and I will do my best to integrate them.

Check out the google code site at http://code.google.com/p/ib-csharp/

9.66/97 update

Just a heads up – been hearing reports that the new TWS build / api version is causing some issues. I’ve downloaded the latest API Java code, and will post an update to the C# library shortly.

Calling all traders

Two years ago, I left my day job to start Tanius Technology, LLC with a friend (excuse the website it is pathetic). We do everything from high frequency black box trading, to extensive manual trading in markets all over the world.

We are looking for independant traders – people who are generally using interactive brokers to trade their own money, and are consistent but perhaps have to keep a day job to pay the bills or are still in school.

If this is you, and you are interested in working with us, please drop me a line email hidden; JavaScript is required

Thursday, September 20, 2007 $7.60 @ 2 Contracts

Gross:  $          20.00
Fees:  $          (4.80)
Net:  $          15.20
Contracts: 2
Ratio:  $             7.60

So today I completed my expiration roll over (better late than never!) and even traded a round trip. I have been ridiculously busy at work lately, which has kept me from getting to trading, but I will try to make time next week again.

Rolling over isn’t as bad as I though – in quote tracker you just add the symbols, and then drag and drop the new symbols onto the current chart, and wallah!

Button trader was a little more work as you had to add the symbols and recreate the containers. No big deal really. I just had to request a new password from these guys, their license scheme is a little annoying, but very reliable software!

Off to work

Hello everyone – so I just got Windows Live Writer Beta 3 installed, and this is a test post. The ADX post, turned out to be the post from hell. I used word 2007′s great equation editor, which is darn near impossible to get to post to a blog. I had to save as a filtered web page, open the page in Web Expression, and copy the html to Word 2007 to do the post (Windows Live Writer crashed when I did this).

In any case, no additional indicators today, I have to run to work early. Hopefully this post works from Beta 3!
