Few questions about TWS

    I just downloaded TWS demo recently.

    When I enter a stock symbol it always prompts me with a list of options. Is there a method to skip this process and choose stocks in default? If I enter GOOG for example, I just want the stock. I don't care about bonds, options, futures etc.

    Also, when I am trading sometimes it takes a minute for the buy order to fill and the sell order just leaves me hanging. Is the execution usually this long are only applies to the demo?

    Type the symbol, then hit Shift + Enter.
