Hello kixxit, and welcome to the JBT discussion group. The JBookTrader is a great tool,with the purpose of some modification for > my own need
Can you describe the nature of your modifications? Perhaps I can merge them into the trunk. I try to understand the code,now I can't understand why the thread in > ResubscriberRunner.java should sleep 1 hour before request MarketData when > the connection to TWS is restored. > > There are two types of disconnections: 1. Temporary disconnections because of the network. They occur about once or twice for my setup (I have a very basic internet connection). They last about 5 to 60 seconds, and when reconnection occurs, both TWS and JBookTrader handle it gracefully, with normal market data flow and trading resuming. No action on the part of TWS or JBT is needed. 2. Permanent loss of market data. This occurs at around the time when the IB servers are restarting (typically around 12 midnight EST for me). After the IB servers restart, by design TWS should restore the connection to the servers, with no loss of market data flow. However, as several people noticed, sometimes the market data freezes after the IB restart, so what needs to happen is that JBT must resubscribe to market data explicitly. This is what ResubscriberRunner is about. It will wait for an hour to let things resolve themselves, and if not, it would unsubscribe from the market data feeds, and resubscribe again. Does that make sense? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "JBookTrader" group.
