    I recently ungraded the IB gateway. All the routing options for stocks (highest rebate etc.) seem to be gone from the options. Did I miss something? Where do I configure this now?

    They never had any effect for orders in my experience. Never was able to do any custom routing strategy with SMART.

    That's what I mean, under "Smart Stock Routing Algorithms" there is only "multi-purpose" & "dark only". It used to look like the attached file.

    Interesting, I see exactly what I posted. Using May 4 download (build 928.2s)

    So with the dialog you posted, how would you configure 'highest rebate' for stocks?

    I see what you are saying now. I was just looking at max rebate option for option orders. I don't see that choice for stocks. Apologies.

    OK, I think I've figured it out. Under 'Stocks' one must tick 'Prefer SMART', then the options appear.
