Hi, I'm a newbie with Interactive Brokers and I see from the posts that some of you have had quite some experience with their platform. I was trying to implement my Strategy with Interactive brokers using their Java API.

IB Contract Information Center

Unfortunately, I'm not quite sure what the error is below. I want to be able to place Forex and Futures Trades.

However, right now, I cannot even receive a Quote for Java. My code is below. Close - but your class must implement EWrapper and create client object with "this" instead of some random PrintWrapper.

You get your quotes in the tickPrice callback funtion. I hacked this together so it won't compile but here is the structure. Thanks a lot for your help Promagma I understand what your saying.

However, I already have a implemented a PrintWrapper class and its doing exactly what you have suggessted. I'm not sure what's the difference?

My PrintWrapper Class is given below. Ah yeah you got it right Well the IB API is a delicate beast So looking at my own working application, I see two differences in our code.

When adding a stock I am setting thisContract. Well, I'm not sure if it has much to do with local symbol.

There is a Yahoo TWS API group People will answer questions too. GOD, this experience with IB is soooo miserable. On top of that their Technical Assistance guy on chat never came. One of them came online, but after saying 'HI', he never responded. I wonder if everybody's first expereience with IB was the same.
