Sluggo, Thank you very much for the explanation. Yes, the CSI format is a bit odd, but does make sense. The 'lowest denominator price format' method is clever, but not how most trading software works, so it threw me. L p.s. my apologies for the slow reply and thanks. My internet provider had major e...

Might save you some time by noting that the Numerical Recipes Nelder-Mead algorithm tends to get stuck in local maxima/minima. User Satisfaction with Numerical Recipes implementation: Given a sufficiently bumpy surface, every 3rd or 4th solution returned by of Nelder-Mead is hopeless junk. Speed: Nu...

margin requirements in CSV format
If you use margin reqs and been trading for a while, most likely you have a way of keeping them up to date. Since I am a new TBB use and looked into FuturesInfo.txt, some of the margin numbers seemed off. Finding this is not so easy, except in case of CME group. (Thankfully, someone is organized.) P...

Bubba, Most TY activity does take place (at least for now) during traditional day session hours. Contract: since IB is set up for electronic markets that is your only practical choice. CSI: combined contract has 'pit' session close but carries the max(pit, electronic) and min(pit,electronic) for Hig...

Sluggo, Thank you very much. Excellent suggestion. I do have a Python program to manipulate back adjusted contract by splicing the Nth data Close into place of Total OI field. (That is the only way of inserting the real close into TradeStation compatible data file.) Since I am just learning TBB, I'v...

Hi AFJ Yes, you are missing the point. Rolling: if this is what you are really after, roll on VOLUME 1st trigger and check published schedule. Carry trade and Spreads: The topic is way to complex to cover in few lines. If you'd really like to know about these topics, locate a book specializing in Ag...

Should that be the case, trading the Bankers notes, 3 Yr, 10 Yr ought to present special issue when using FuturesInfo.txt data. Have I misunderstood the contra...
