IB quotes just disappeared about half hour ago for a few minutes. I have also noticed IB quotes have been lagging on and off in the past few days and seems like the quotes freeze for a couple of seconds frequently
Noticed this yesterday as well as today, but oddly enough it only is happening on one of my two computers. The only difference is one PC is running quotes through the "secure" log on and that is the one that is having the quote freeze. The other account is not logged on through the secure mode and has not had any problems that I have noticed.
disappearing quotes is nothing...i have short position on one stock today and i did close my TWS for few minutes to open demo and test my app-but all of sudden-news pop up on this stock.. for next 15 minutes stock make 10% up and for all this time i was unable to login. TWS just open after you login, then-close by itself.that was a hell of experience..at same time on separate computer another account been open and everything work just fine. explanation of it from CS amazing as usual-"I don't know why it did happend". f.. thank you for such detailed explanation..
there is small amount of money on second account, not enough to hedge this open position and it is below day trading minimum.. it not a point.. i do not believe in such coincidence(in fact it happen not for first time with my account as far as i remember) and for me, answer such "I don't know why it's happens" - is not enough. and refusing to let me talk to someone who may explain to me why it happens -did not make me happy either.. as i mentioned in some other tread-it like fricking casino-you find the way how to beat the house-they not let you in..
