Hi larry,
I downloaded bracket trader for testing yesterday, and what I found was the DOM didn’t show correct depth when there was a gap between prices. Would you look at it please? I looked at SGXNK contract during RTH. And it seems that the DOM can’t show correct price for spot FX.
Thanks
Seems OK with my testing. How often do the gaps occur?
For spot FX, there is no “last price”, only the bid and the ask, so the “last price” in BT is an average. Check the prices in TWS.
Yes it’s ok when there’s no gap. Try watching HSI contract when it opens. It has lots of gaps during trading hours (10pm – 4am EST).
For FX, I couldn’t see the fifth decimal on BT. It only displays up to 4th digit.
Thanks
If you want to show the 5th decimal, you have to re-enter the symbol with the tick increment as 0.00005. Is the standard 4 or 5 decimals for fx?
I’ll check HSI tomorrow, too late to check today.
Looks like I can’t add/del symbol as it’s only for registered users. IB uses 5 decimals for FX.
You can also check SGXNK during 9am – 2pm EST
I’m testing SGXNK today, everything is OK so far.
Hi Larry,
I downloaded new version of BT and I have the problem: It does not show price for RUT, but it shows prices for others ( ES, NQ etc.). Please, could you advice me, what should I do.
Can you show price for RUT in TWS?
The symbol used by IB should be TF.
Yes, I can show price for RUT (TF) in TWS. Date of expiry is also all right. (201009)
After much testing, I discovered that Globex is working, but NYBOT not work.
Seems OK with my testing.
Hi Larry,
Thank you very much for your help (and pictures). Now it is all right. My problem was that I used symbol RUT in BT instead of TF in last version. Your pictures show me my mistake.
Thanks.
