Now (7:30UK, 2:30EST), IB data have been down for an hour, such that my account balance is messed up because all US holdings show $0 prices but non-US names are okay. Logged in and out and data refreshed countless times. Anyone in Asia or Europe with US holdings having similar issues?
That's why you always should download the daily statements that they send by email. Then you can use them in case you have to challenge any amount in your account.
I was net short and all US names showed $0 prices, so my net account value was very inflated, so the buying power during Asian hours was 2x what it should be. If I used it to load up Asian names before the erroneous data were corrected, I would then be given a margin call and forced to liquidate at my cost. Fuck that shit
