I heard esignal have finally cleaned up their Eurex act after years of promising to do so. IB are fast albeit snapshot. The J-Trader feed from...
The world's biggest futures exchange and 100% electronic.
I don't think so ..more like 0.5 or 0.7 second snapshot. It's the same on Eurex and on US markets. Being a member firm, IB's quotes are fast from...
Exactly, and when that starts to happen, what's to stop SP Comstock from deciding to "review" it's exclusive contract with the CME for the SP, ES...
All I can say is: ain't competition great?! It's we the customers who will benefit. Eurex do have a history of paoching major contracts right from...
To me this is just a play on words to say it's not an IB problem. It certainly is an IB problem if you don't have multiple links into the...
Same thing here ...booted off and auto log-back-in not working after 15 attempts. Had to reboot PC twice to get back running. My other account at...

I looked at it last week. It has no ability to enter a stop-limit order (essential for ES/NQ traders as only stop-limits are held native on...
Jerry, I concur with what you say. There may just be a difference in phrasology between us. My basic point is that 100% of the ticks coming out...
I agree. The subject of this thread is misleading. The poster wanted to discuss the merits of the different front-end products to IB, not the API...
Look Scientist - I'm not talking about the refresh rate. It's irrelevant whwther it's 0.7 or 0.5 or whatever it is. What I'm talking about is...
