    Today our primary ISP failed and we needed to fall back onto the backup. Last time it happened, I made a following post:

    The back-end server improvements are already on-line.

    The TWS improvements have been completed and will go into beta this week. (I wish they were fully rolled out before we needed them today).

    As a result of today's outage some users may need to restart their TWS to recover all the services. Thank you for your understanding.

  4. It's not supposed to happen.
    Ib told us some days ago:

    "- the loss of settings, which coincided w/ this week connectivity loss is now understood and being rectified"

    Don't complain or they will pin their Ib "RUDE" label upon you.
    :D

    And all my pages/settings are gone. :mad:

    You have copies of them, in the other settings files.

  7. I am done with them today. I have had enough. One penny a share gets pretty expensive when you include missed trades.

    Ok, I will say it. IB is dogshit. Good riddance.

  8. IB is more concerned with sucking customers from CNBC advertising than reinforcing its current infrastructure imo....


    Just seems funny how all of a sudden they spend $$$$ on advertising and their product suffers....


    bye bye IB

  9. on my puter, only a 5 min disconnection, but after that I could not get NinjaTrader connected. I am playing with it only, so no big deal, ZLT (my real life platform) worked just fine after the disconnect.

    I can't believe that I am actually impressed with how fast they fixed this, but I understand that not everybody is that pleased.

    I'm rather impressed too.

    I didn't know IB had TV ads. What are they like? Do they involve the guy in the logo fllipping the bird?
