Any auto entry TWS API that supports bond fractions??

  1. I can't seem to find any. Autotrader claims that it supports fractions, but IB keeps rejecting orders because the tick values are stored in decimals. So anyone know any software ( ie. autotrader, bracket-trader, ninjatrader, etc. ) that supports fractions?

    I believe eFloorTrade's software will allow that.

  5. Well then how do you enter a bond order? Do you have to do stuff like type in 109.40625?

    No, just click and click.

    Good for ZN and ZF also.

    Pretzel how do you add ZN as a symbol? When I click tools, the "add symbols" option is greyed out.

    believe the 30 year is quoted in fracions at IB. if that matters

    ten year quotes the 64th frac as even and half tick of 32nd.
