TWS wrong password

  1. Does TWS now give you a "invalid username" when trying to login during shut down hour? I tried to login around 11:55, right near shutoff hour, but usually I will just get repeated login attempts. This is first time seeing "invalid username".
     
  2. yes, they do give you this invalid password when they are shut down.
     
  3. YEAH... it's a surprising little fact that most people just starting out with IB don't know. IB goes down for system maintenance every night around 23:30 - 24:00 until 00:30 - 00:45.

    I hope that this helps
