I'm using TWS 862.9a with no problems. (Other than 8 fills each of the last 2 days, which is too much for my multitasking ability!) Might be worth checking the IB bulletin boards, or just going back to the previous version.
You manually type in a couple thousand symbols to check for news? When do you start your prep, 3:00 am?
i tryed everything and its gone on this latest version. i suggest you not upgrade if you do opens. is there a place where i can find older versions to downgrade to?
Try this: http://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/control/twscontrol.php?ib_entity=llc Also a good idea to open a trouble ticket, I'm sure they don't want us to stop these orders. I never upgrade until a few weeks have gone by, and I've checked the API and other boards at IB. And then I wait some more....
1 short loser, 2 long wins and 1 long scratch, +101 Would have been a good day to hold longer, but the trades were chopping around and I didn't want to risk it.
OK, this time I have to blame my eye infection ( I do have one, but I can't really blame it, but sort of, LOL). Bought CC on the open, my program died on me, so I quickly put in two more buys to cover the original buy, and ended up buying double the stupid stupid stock..... (altogether now "dumbass"). Anyway, Pep helped a bit, still down $250 for the day. Don
BBY only today ("old faithful")...only $400, coulda been $2,000, LOL. Fixing program tonight (hopefully), get all the stocks in properly. Don
