I am using MultiCharts which I like perfectly with my IB. And I'm using ButtonTrader for order entry. I basically need two more windows, one is Time and Sales and the other is a window showing my current IB account details (margin, equity, etc.). Is there an app out there that I could just use for those two purposes? It would be fine if I could hide its other features and they are not taking up resources.
You can see your margin in TWS by clicking 'View' and 'Account'. T&S using IB's data is available in QuoteTracker. You can detach the T&S window.
What? Sure it does. Unless you mean for FX? Why wouldn't IB provide streaming T&S? There's a button on the main toolbar for it.
