Unofficial TWS bug thread

I feel you and if one can dig my posts far enough- I'm questioning their rationale regarding paper account only on same pc for a very very long time...years...being ignored once again on it.

 

Using 944.3c, my simulated account is getting fills that are larger than the order size. For example, SELL 287 XYZ OPG MKT will sell 387 shares. dst- I can email examples if you'd like?

 

Templates can again be created with new version 945.1b. But all previously saved templates remained lost and needed to be individually recreated.

'S wonderful.

 

Yes, please email me (or Brandon, I spoke with him yesterday, he should be reaching out to you) details; note that even if this is a problem, it is highly unlikely points out to an issue in production account due to the nature of the simulated/paper account

 

Not gonna defend, but anyone that codes knows that something as complex as this is going to have many bugs.

They could probably stomp them out if they halted all new work for a year.

 

I just wanted to update everyone interested on recent reports

jtrader33, as usual, thank you for working with us to troubleshoot the issue; we are looking at paper/simulated system issue.

This should be working now in currently posted 945 build; beta 946 build with this fix is coming out in few minutes.

Amibroker could not immediately provide any details; we retested 945 and discovered one minor issue which we addressed. I’m not sure if this is related to Tomasz’s report on Yahoo forum or not; if anyone have extra info on that (or can help us work with Amibroker to get more information) – please PM me.

This is addressed in 945 on Fri; beta 946 build with this fix is coming out in few minutes.

 

dst:

One thing I've always found bothersome - As far as I can determine there is no way to determine precisely what level of TWS is available for download. The "alpha" level 9451(?) never shows on IB's web site, just the decimal level. The only place the "alpha" level shows up is on the Help\About Trader Workstation screen once TWS is open. The date associated with the version is essentially meaningless. Adding the alpha level to the web site would be nice, but might be administratively difficult.

whats the deal with reported volume. does not jive with other sources

 

duh? is this a scoop?

 

I notice can never get a straight answer to simple questions, but ask about some total bullshit options strat, and 25 pseudo experts come screaming at ya.

lol.
