That was on one computer - the win XP machine connected to IB. None of my orders on my Win7x64 machine (connected to MB) went in either. This morning when I got up on the brand new win7 machine I saw that OT had CRASHED again overnight. Everyday OT crashes for no apparent reason. Overnight OT was Not doing anything - not strat wizard, not training a CB/NN, not running To-Do, just on waiting to do what I really want it to do - TRADE STOCKS. But no, it crashes for no reason I can tell (it crashes EVERYDAY like this). See attached. The crash does not generate anything in the OT log so how do I diagnose it? OT2010 PR3K. So I close OT, clean out the .ldb files, and restart OT. Hope that it can last through the day to enter my trades AND MONITOR MY STOPS on exiting trades (ummm, kinda important) At 7:30 AM I left for work and OT was up and connected to MB. OP EOD was running. Several trades should've been entered today. But nothing happened, no emails from OP (??), no trades entered with MB, nothing. Did OT crash agin? Why didn't OP send me an email? 2 machines, 2 failures - and this is happeneing every day. Some error, something, happens and OT/OP/IB FAILS again and again. I have been working with OT for several years now. I consider myself well above average in the usage, maintenence, set-up, etc, of OT (and computers/networks in general). But I cannot get 2 computers/OT/OP/IB setups to reliably work. yea I'm getting frustrated. VERY FRUSTRATED. We get offers to spend more money on GT3 or T-3 or the new options suite. The Nirvana programmers/QA are busy with these new projects. Meanwhile me and several others are spending major hours trying to get the OP/OT/IB thing to work - basically doing nirvana's QA job - and finding lots of issues in the whole IB/OP integration. That is not what I expected, especially with OT 2010. By now the whole OP/OT/IB thing should work. Just work, especially the EOD script. But it appears that OP/IB hasn't really been looked at or robusted since it came out. Did you know that Nirvana tests the OP/IB/OT interface via the paper brokerage only and not the real brokerage? This is not good - there are big differences with MB trading and IB in their paper accts vs their real brokerage. Differences in EOD vs RT. These need QA testing! Just trade 1 share at a time in multiple timeframes (1 min, 15 min, daily, EOD), use both brokers, use both win XP and win7 machines. Here is what I am asking - How about getting OT/OP/IB stable and robust enough to WORK AS ADVERTISED? Attached file : OT crash.png (79KB - 466 downloads) | ||

We are 4 years into intergated broker for OT which was released with 2006 and anyone using real trading or EOD will find a boat load of problems. I'm told by support that there is nothing that can't do. I say prove it fix the problem. Nick M | ||

My XP machine generates trades, and OP tells me they are "ready for batch submission", but they never get to IB and all day I get emails telling me these trades are "rdy for batch sub" but no trade. The emails are like like a taunt "naaaa Naaa Naaaa no trades for you, 1 year" Just got the email again: Orders recorded for Batch Submission ------------------------------------ LONG BPI for37 shares [Edited by Buffalo on 4/14/2010 8:53 AM] | ||

"Instead just have Pilot run the in morning before the market opens rather than at night" But that is what it is doing. I have pilot open OT at 0830 and begin trading at 0845. The "batch submit" thing is just how OP/OT is doing it, I did not decide to use batch submit. I wouldn't even know how. Is OP using the "batch submit" thing because I have the EOD script set on interval trading (every 30 min) not the "start OT at XXX, submit orders at x time, close ot at x" way? IOW is it because OP is set to use interval trading and there is no setting for when to submit orders, OP uses the batch thing? Why interval trading? So OT can manage my stops (they are not MOO exits - they are market exits I want monitored all day). Not for multiple entries but for stops/exits so interval trading is necessary for my trading. I tried using RT set to daily bars but that didn't work like I wanted (continuously update stops), and OT won't use 5 min bars to monitor exits on a daily bar entry [Edited by Buffalo on 4/14/2010 11:31 AM] | ||

If UseBatchSubmit Then OmniPilot.OnTime(BatchSubmitTime, AddressOf MySubmitOrders) Change this line to the following. If Not IntervalTrader And UseBatchSubmit Then OmniPilot.OnTime(BatchSubmitTime, AddressOf MySubmitOrders) I will ensure these changes make it into the next pre-release as well. | ||

If I replace the userinterface script with the new one this issue will be resolved? | ||

Matt Having problems with new userinterface script, so I had to put old one back to get OT to stop crashing, but now I am back to square one - using OP-EOD trader under Interval trading My trades DO NOT GET SUBMITTED to broker. They "are ready for batch submission" (that's the email OP sends me every hour from 9AM till I shut OP down at 6pm) but that is all that happens, all day long. ***This is still an open issue*** Did you test the new scripts, esp the userinterface one? Waited till the weekend to test them. Doing nothing else to OT - OT was running just fine when I shut it down Fri night, I tried the new OP scripts to see if the modTWS would work. Not only did the scripts not work (TWS didn't come up and OT didn't load) but several of my databases got corrupted as I tried to get it working. OT.otd, symbol.mdb and brokerage.otd generated error messages that they were in a format OT didn't recognize. I replaced them with old versions and was able to get OT back. Replaced userinterface script with old version to get OP back. BTW something else that was going on with the computer as I had these OP/TWS/OT issues is some file/files/memory/?? kept balloning up until a low-space warning was issued by windows. When I started testing the new OP scripts the C drive had over 10 GB free on 60 GB drive (ok it's an older computer that's why drive is so small). But as these OP script tests were ran I got low space warnings and C was down to 80mb. I couldn't find the offending file(s) and windows XP makes it difficult to do anything with no free space. restarting the computer was the only way to fix. This happened several times, along with the database errors I was getting. Once I replaced the userinterface.txt, symbols.mdb, brokerage.otd and ot.otd with old versions everything seemes to work ok now | ||

Yes it is resolved. I use MB trading on a win7 machine now, and have worked with Nirvana on OP stuff continuously since. BL while OP still needs some work, generally it works well. |
