I have been using workspace macro to change the time each day, I did not know there was such a thing as IBController. Will download, thanks. I am assuming they will eventually upgrade the IBController, if not and you need features in the new version of TWS, then you might try a macro program, it does the job and also makes loading strategies much faster and easier, otherwise I am just planning to stick with the old version.
@vega: I hope this macro recorder is very reliable, or that you using it with your paper account, that looks a bit dangerous
@Henrik: IB have a lot of good things, I'm with them for years now, but IB datafeed, time based or ticks (which are badly aggregated ticks, 4 snapshots/seconds, no more...) is really not the first choice...
Whats the alternative (Spot FX)?
Only MB.
But MB have bad bugs with NT (crashed if a strategy manage a position over the rollovertimes, with NT6.5 and also NT7beta).
Auto Log Off TWS:
I try another tool, I've forget the name of this tool, I write it down tomorrow here.
i have always found the auto log off to be a nuisnance. i am looking at twsstart and it looks like it just auto-logs it back on after log off? does it really just disable the auto log off feature? could you give details on how to configure twsstart to do this?
thanks
if still interesting: did not try yet (just took notice one minute ago ), but going :
TWSStart 2.4.13.4230
Configuration
Monitor Settings
Exit Session Settings
'Change "Auto LogOff" time' set true changes AM to PM and vice cersa in order to avoid logging off
