Some people have reported to be able to run JBT for weeks and months continuously, but the best guarantee of a smooth operation is to restart. There are two things at play here: 1. The "front" futures contracts expire (ES on a quarterly basis, CL on a monthly basis). There is no functionality in JBT to dynamically load the new front contract when the old one expires. So, if you don't restart, JBT would trade the front contract until expiration, and all the attempted trades after the expiration would be rejected. When you restart JBT every day, there is a guarantee that the front contract would be recorded and traded. 2. The IB API still has a problem where after the midnight IB market data server restart, the market data stops. That was reported by Klaus, and I saw evidence of that as well. I had an attempt to address it programmatically by using what was known as ResubscriberRunner, but it it was not a perfect solution, so I removed it. Again, the best thing to do is to restart JBT before the day trading session. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "JBookTrader" group.
