With method #1, I would work off a watchlist and
do all the data precessing in the AA window (to create the buy / sell
signals).
Would have one window dedicated to monitoring
portfolio parameters (open positions, account balance etc) which would get its
information via static variable.
A second window,totally independent) would
monitor any issue of interest, but is not necessary for the operation. Of
course you could have a window for each issue. Ideally computer would function
with no "supervision", but for an initial period it would be necessary for the
learning period.

Ara.
I use your choice 1. I'm not sure exactly
what 2. is or how it would work. You'd still have to have the same
number of charts open, right?

I have been playing with ibcontroller paper
trading ONE issue for about a week and got the flavor for
it...
Now starting to design a portfolio trading
system... nor sure which way to go...
1. Run the trading code inn AA window and
have an indicator window to monitor portfolio status (via static variables
from trading code)
2. Run trading code from indicator window and
have charts for individual issues create trading signals and pass them to
the trading code window as static variable.
3. Any other suggestiion?
Method #1 - I beleive Herman had found this
too slow for the number of issues he wanted to trade.
Method #2 - In order to assure data
integrity, I beleive that each window will have to be hard coded
(by use of foreign() ) in order to insure data does not change if window
is selected for some reason. If I am right, this is very
cumbersome.
Appreciate any feedback
