    Hi,

    anyone else having the problem with 1Min Candle Bar Charts in TWS (latest and stable version) after the long IB maintenance yesterday? The problem appears for all stocks I checked.

    E.g.:
    1 Min candles I get the error message "invalid time length".
    2 Min candles work fine.
    5 Min candles work depending on the chart options.
    15Min, 30Min and Daily Candles work fine.

    Very common problem;
    on smaller time frames.
    Daily + weekly;
    lots less errors + when it happens its much more obvious if you trade /invest something regular + have paper charts............…......…..................……...

    no, the problem appeared for the first time today, probably after IB did maintenance on Saturday. It never happened in the past.

    It´s a simple chart with 1Min candles. No specific timeframe. you can simply zoom in or out increasing or decreasing the timeframe.

    seems like they solved it just before market started.
