No problem, I was expecting that. Naturally, I'll have to add that it does the job and given the number of great front ends and programs routing through IB's API - and the lack of noise/complaints from the peanut gallery - must mean we're doing something right.
what kind of volume would be needed to use a platform like these. what kind of size per trade are yall putting on? (# of contracts) i am just trying to get a better feel for how big of size that this would be useful for. thanks.
Boomer, Many brokers offer j-trader and x-trader as platform. Some of these brokers also openly advertise their rates. This information is readily available. I don't want to get involved in referals. I suggest you do a yahoo search and a lot will turn up. If you would find some good information on the way to set up an API test system and the expense, please let us know. Good luck, nononsense
