    I'm looking at starting to trade ES during the ETH.
    Being trading on RTH for many years (fully automated).

    For the guys who are trading ES in full ETH (starting from Sunday pm ET) and using IBGw,
    How do you handle the reconnection during the Sunday night disconnect?
    1) You stay up and reconnect IBGw on Sunday night before going to bed?
    2) You don't trade until you reconnect on Monday morning (whatever time it might be)?
    3) Any other solution?

    IBGw reconnect automatically every night but require manual reconnect on Sunday nights.

    Thanks in advance.

    Change your daily reconnect time to 00:15, or anything after midnight. You can then manually log in on Sunday morning, or whenever you start up your systems on Sunday.

    Thanks for your reply, but how this change will affect the Sunday night reconnection? I mean the one from Sunday to Monday?
