I'm on a hotel's WiFi but can't log into TWS at all -- after I enter my credentials, it just hangs at the splash screen saying "Connecting to...
widespread reports on twitter: https://twitter.com/search?q=CBOE&src=typed_query&f=live CBOE down? EDIT: seems to be working again for me now at...
Yes, there's some widespread outage going on... no prices are updating on IB or other brokerages. Very concerning since I have no idea whether my...
This workaround seems to have hit a roadblock. Bought a new computer, set everything up and then used the same STABLE TWS Installation file that...
THIS WORKED (!!) Specifically, I opened the tws.vmoptions file in Text editor, and added the following: [IMG] Is this what you were advocating...
Yes, I shut my machines down every night, so they were booted up fresh, and only 1 of the 3 PC's I have auto-updated. Can't imagine why that would...
Yup it's the API that broke as well. Specifically order submission -- I can still pull market data into Excel, but the API order submission...
That is the single most dumbfounding IB Fail there is. Their updates sometimes have change logs, most don't, many exist but aren't actually linked...
Right, except that the current "Offline" version has been updated to the buggy most-recent Stable version...so good note for next time, but...
The most recent STABLE version (10.19.1f) of TWS is buggy as hell -- pretty much unusable for me -- but as best I can tell there's no way to ROLL...
@def, OP is correct: IB's KB, FAQ, how-to pages are indeed incredibly poor. Far below the standards of what any market participant of your size...

FYI got booted from IB servers around 945am today and can't connect / login anymore. Rest of my internet is fine. Tried both my home wifi and...
Thanks for the reply; I trade and monitor a lot of options (different dates / strikes) so unfortunately it's hard to create a limited list of...
Thanks for this thread @MoreLeverage , just discovering it now since I decided to finally try and fix my own nonsense layout stuff. (Using TWS...
Source? The repliers ITT thus far have suggested they don't (except for exchange-directed / non-SMART orders discussed above)?
I did pull up one of my recent Statement reports, and expanded the Fees section, and the only thing listed there was the market data packages I...
I can't find a definitive answer on this. This page of IB commissions appears to say there's no such fee (for North American options at least;...
IB has a "Model Price" data field that gives their model's estimate for the value of any option contract. It's not terrible, though I find it's...
This is my assumption as well. On that point, have you had any conversations with the CRA (or an account with relevant experience) who has told...
