new_trader, you were right: IBGateway is preset to a different port than TWS. I have changed the socket port number and now the connection to IBGateway is not a problem. Thanks a lot for your suggestion.
One difference I noticed is that unlike the TWS, IB Gateway connection does not require confirmation when the connection is established. ________________________________ From: new_trader <[email protected]> To: JBookTrader <[email protected]> Sent: Fri, January 7, 2011 4:22:44 PM Subject: [JBookTrader] Re: problem placing stock trades perhaps you could try disabling McAffee firewall for some minutes and try again. you should also check on which port IBGateway is listening, perhaps it differs from TWS port. perhaps you could send an "empty" strategy java file so we can reproduce. with empty I mean a strategy file not containing your trading logic of the onBookSnapshot() method so you don't have to reveal your trading logic. when I open QQQQ in my TWS in the BookTrader window, TWS tells me that market data subscription for ISLAND and ARCA is missing. perhaps this can be a clue... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "JBookTrader" group.
