Stops didnt work for me three times in the row. Last stop I had a 1.2558 sell on EurUSD futures (2 mins ago) ...price went thru it and my stop never got activated. Had to close manually. Thx God I was watching my position.
I'm trying to log in, but I can not This is from the system status page : 18:43 EST Some clients may experience difficulties logging in to their Trader Workstatsions we are currently working to resolve this issue. Really strange !! TWS should be up and running. I tried it with ssl and without ssl. Another thing, lately I'm not able to log in using SSL, anybody else ?
IB is running ok now , but stops don't work. Last week stops didnt work either (at least twice I had a problem). Regarding H2O issue.....I think IB recently warned that SSL connection should be unchecked from now on in order to log on.
Still unable to log in here. On both computers, separate connections, so I'm pretty sure the problem is still with IB..... Waiting....
Did you check your stop trigger action ? And did you check "allows stops to be triggered after hours" ?
No, If you're talking about futures than this is not true : If "Default" is selected, then the double bid/ask method will be used for orders for OTC stocks and US options. All others orders will use the last method. So If you're trading futures you're using last. This is the trigger for last : If "Last" is selected, stop orders will be triggered based on the last price. For example, for a sell order, there must be one last price that is less than or equal to the trigger price. Also, below on the trigger page, you can select " Allow triggering outside of regular trading hours." NOTE : This settings applies to stop orders on GLOBEX and to simulated Stop-Limit orders on other exchanges only.
