I'd be grateful to hear how I can solve it, since I don't think I'm any closer to doing so, despite having read all the replies ITT. Question...
Whenever I submit an order at the midpoint (Sell order @ $0.10 in my OP example) on less liquid contracts, I'm rarely filled...
I'm still trying to wrap my head around IB's various SMART / direct routing choices; my initial attempts to play around have been oddly expensive;...
Damn, life got interrupted so I'm only now getting back to my thread to post replies. Hopefully there are still interested responders. There...
IB's SMART-routing sends orders to...well, any number of a half-different exchanges. And unless I'm mistaken, my order can actually be skipped...
A typical presentation of this annoyance: Bid/Offer for a contract is 70 x $0.20 / 85 x $0.30. I submit a Sell order for 50 x $0.25. I'm the...

I nearly always use HDMI or TB3 out-ports (with TB/USB-C to HDMI male-to-male cable) to drive my 4K@60hz displays. Are there cpu-performance...
