I experienced, um, an issue with CSI software, build UA 2.10.7.112 . Large numbers of individual month contracts just disappeared -- poof! -- and the rollovers went crazy.

Wow, very impressive what is possible. Ill tip toe in and see how it goes. I send orders to IB via their excel API. Over 100 per night. This would require running IB tws on the remote server.

Double up, to belly up...? There are much tighter bets if martingale is your thing. Wasn't Mr. Vince expounding a method where you don't loose.
