  2. I agree with most of what's been said in this thread. TS2000i is old, unsupported software, with many bugs, and not to be relied-upon for realtime trading. It's OK for backtesting however...that's about it.
    TraderAssistant provides a high speed DLL link to TWS order entry....and that is good. The bad news is, they did not integrate the IB data feed into TS2000i. Thus, you'll be charting with one feed (you must pay for this separately), and sending orders based on IB's feed. Very dangerous IMHO.

  6. That's good to know....but in your case, you most likely have the TWS edition of Metaserver, so your feeds for charts and orders are the same.
    Let me ask you a question about Metaserver:
    Does the Global Server in TS2000i need to be running or can it be shut down ?

    Yeah, metaserver has a version for IB,if you only trade two symbols , you can even pay zero for that.

  8. Huh ? I thought Metaserver was a one-time license fee type of deal. It's based on symbols used ?

    in the trial version, you can have two symbols for free forever. If you only need two symbols, you do not have to buy a paid standard version
