Need Comment - Latest IB TWS (9443) with MC 8.8

Postby Spaceant » 06 Apr 2014

Hi Folks,

I haven't been updated the IB TWS for months as I am still using Build 918.9b and using MC 8.0 (build 5622) 64 bit to autotrade. Today, I receive a message from IB that they will no longer support the TWS that I am not using.

Can anyone comment if there is any problem running MC 8.8 64 bit with the latest TWS? Or should I install MC 8.7 64 nit instead?

I just want your comment before I upgade them.

BTY, can I update to MC directly to MC 8.8 without any issue?

Thanks in advance!

SA

I've been running the latest TWS with the current version of MC for a couple of weeks, with no trouble.. (not autotrading though)...
I'd suggest autotrade with TWS "Sim" to verify that everything works as expected...

Hi sptrader,

Do you mean Build 9369 or 9443?

I am using MC 8.8 and IB tools in the latest version, but I use the IB Gateway.
With TWS I had several problems, but IB Gateway runs without problems in autotrading mode, which I am still testing.

We are not aware of any problems with MC 8.8 (release 3) and latest IB TWS builds. Please let us know if you find some.

Hi sptrader,

Do you mean Build 9369 or 9443?
**************************************************
I am running 936.9 (I didn't notice the newer version).
I think most autotraders use the IB "Gateway"..
