interactive brokers api: Generic Tick Tags

Discussion in 'Automated Trading' started by thosecars82, Jan 26, 2010.

  1. Hello
    Does anyone know where the missing integer id values from the list described in section Contents->Home->Reference Tables->Generic Tick Types of
    http://www.interactivebrokers.com/ph...e/apiguide.htm
    can be found?


    For example, I do not see tag number 105 described at that section.

    Besides my first question, does anyone know any other better place to post this kind of question related to Trader Workstation API from Interactive Brokers rather than using either this section in the forum or even this forum in general?

    Please, do not mention the interactive brokers forum
    http://www.interactivebrokers.com/smf/
    because for the time being I have no access to that forum.

    Thanks

  3. Thanks for the information.

    I posted 3 different threads at that group a week ago and have not received any reply yet though. Therefore I am not sure about how active that group is.
    Thanks though.

  5. You sure, that this tick number is used at all?

    It may have no meaning.

    It is common practice to leave open some codes for future development.

    In case you are looking for something specific please tell.
     
  6. I just saw it in some code I got from someone.
    If I need any more help I will let you know.
    Thanks
