TWS to Share Tracker

[ScottMcNab]

Wierd…i just tried on ASX with several thousand shares using V2.3-2-3 and worked ok.

I’ve still got an issue too Said. It’s basically exactly the same as Julian’s situation for me. Since mid last week or actually since yesterday the issue arose.

Like you said; see wht IB say

[ScottMcNab]

Trent and Julian…are you using the older stable version of TWS or the lastest ? If it is an update then downloading the older/stable version may be a simple fix that saves Said some work ?

[TrentRothall]

Yeah, well i haven’t downloaded any new versions but i think it may do it automatically? does anyone else’s?

[JulianCohen]

Mine automatically updates on start up.

I’m just uninstalling it and installing the Offline version. I’ll see if that corrects the problem.

Update: No exactly the same problem

[JulianCohen]

It seems to me that if there is a number of trades, all under 1,000 shares, then it works correctly, but if there is one trade of over 999 then the comma in the 1,000 causes the problem. Is that what you think Said?

Is it possible that it just didn’t occur before last week by chance?

[ScottMcNab]

Hi Julian….are u doing the “export displayed reports” option ? When I use that I do not have a comma in the number of shares even when several thousand. Alternatively,something else that may work is to go in tws/config/export trade reports and change the field delimiter from , to ;

[SaidBitar]

the thing that the code should fix it by itself no idea why it is not working

i will check it again

[SaidBitar]

sorry guys my bad
i wrote the macro in a stupid way

lets hope now it is smarter
may you please check

I am using the ‘export displayed reports’ option. I tried changing to a space instead. That made the CSV file look OK but Said will still have to make a change to the macro to account for it.

I haven’t heard from IB yet….

[SaidBitar]

try the one from today i think it is OK

[Anonymous]

perhaps worth checking your TWS version? ive been using offline version 958 without issue…

Thanks Said, it seems to be all good now! Working as it should.

Thanks again, a very handy little file
