There's a CPLEX Optimization Studio Free Edition, even though it has limitations (1000 variables/ contraints)
Rob, I'm curious about your beta portfolio: why the large risk overweight to stocks vs bonds? Is it tactical or strategic?
Yes, now they added the NSE contract and it has data, but it looks like it can't be traded. I was wondering if it was just me, since a few months...
Hi. Are you guys able to trade the new NIFTY50 future contract on NSE? TWS raises a trading permission issue, but I already have trading...
Hi @cholo Would you mind sharing the python code with the buffering technique, when you find the time? I'd be interested in that. Thanks a lot.
Hi Rob, I was taking a look at your reports and saw you are currently long JPY. This was quite surprising, since I'd say all CTAs are currently...

Your code seems to work for me, even if I don't have a data subscription: [BarData(date=datetime.datetime(2023, 2, 9, 2, 0), open=1248.6,...
That's the code I'm using: ib.reqMarketDataType(3) contract = Contract() contract = Future("K200M", "202303", "KSE")...
Sorry for the OT, but I was hoping someone could help me on this. My understanding was that through IB's API it's possible to get historical price...
About macro trends, I incorporate them as a signal in my trading strategy. I think the signals are intuitive, make economic sense, out of sample...
You probably know about this, but here is an interesting paper on how to make use of short term signals without actually trading them...
There were tons of lines in the sand (CHF peg to EUR, zero floor for oil prices or interest rates) that were violated even in the recent past....
Update: if you search for "DE" in TWS you will get a list of German govt bonds, all of which have margins correctly calculated. For example,...
Yes, I use portfolio margin. Looks like what you say is correct but, beyond not making any sense, it also contradicts what def said in the post I...
@def I was looking at this 6 bln € German Gov Bond issue with maturity < 1year: DE0001104859 How is it possible initial margin is 100%? My account...
