    SIPP Product at Interactive Brokers

    Gerald - I have a question regarding multiple accounts at IB. I already have a personal trading account, and if I do transfer my SIPP I would of course have another one. Would I then have to have two separate logins, with presumably two of these <expletive deleted> security code cards, and two...

    SIPP Product at Interactive Brokers

    Odd as I don't have any kind of mail/spam filter whatsoever, but thanks for that. Anyway I have already been in contact with IPS and it seems there is another problem about IB executing deals that they just can't support, I have the feeling that this just isn't going to fly with them. So I'm...

    SIPP Product at Interactive Brokers

    After some six months now since IB started to offer a SIPP account, it is good to see that the list of approved SIPP administrators is slowly growing, there are now 5 on the list at the time of posting...

    Classic Day Trading Book For Sale

    It's a very detailed description of several S&P futures day trading systems he developed and used himself in 1990's. There are lots of example trades, charts and system metrics, and it's interesting to see how he evolves the systems over the years, as in fact there are three mini-books within...

    Internet Explorer 7

    I tried it and liked it, but I noticed that there were some screen flickering problems on some sites - and T2W was one of them. It's like it quickly redraws the page just before it completes, 2-3 times in a split second - very strange. Could be a problem with my graphics card/driver of course...

    Simple Charting Package that can read from SQL DB

    AmiBroker isn't a broker, it's a stand-alone charting package, with a large feature set for the cost of $149. With some programming effort it will be possible to get it to do what you want, and I think you are unlikely to find anything else to do the job for less. http://www.amibroker.com...

    Simple Charting Package that can read from SQL DB

    I think you might find that the 'easily' part of the requirement will be hard to meet, it is almost certainly going to need some programming skill. One option is to use Excel, this would allow you to access the SQL data directly. However even the most skilled Excel developer is unlikely to come...

    amibroker- newbie

    Later...gosh I'm behind the times! A 'low level' automatic trading interface for Interactive Brokers *is* now supported with AmiBroker, you just have to download an additional free tool. But currently it is not recommended you use a real account, only the demo account IB can provide. Have a look...

    amibroker- newbie

    For your first question, the standard retail version of AmiBroker (which is now 4.70) does not support trading directly from within the program. However, a beta version is available which has a trading interface to Interactive Brokers. To find out more about this, join this Yahoo group...

    Christmas Ghost Stories on BBC4

    I've only just realised that BBC4 has been re-showing the M R James' Christmas Ghost stories that were originally shown on BBC1 in the 70's this week. I remember these vividly, and in particular the one entitled 'The Signalman'. And it was on at 10pm last Sunday last night and I missed it...
