    Cannot trade ZBH04 via IB TWS

    According to this: http://www.cbot.com/cbot/docs/42770.pdf the overnight screen is open. PLUS Qcharts has charted the ZB since the usual night open...it's trading at 108 '29. I sent an e-mail to IB cust. service but I haven't heard from them yet.

    Cannot trade ZBH04 via IB TWS

    Anyone else having this problem? It must be due to the changeover from a/c/e to e-cbot.

    Good news about IB's closeout policy!

    Just received this e-mail: Dear Mr. ....., Thank you for your comments. We will adjust the close out schedule for long positions in the ACE US Treasury futures contracts so that it occurs during the day before the Exchange's "first notice" date. That is on the "first position" date...

    Cant buy bonds with IB

    I shorted ZBU this morning. I wanted to put in a buy stop to cut my losses, and I also wanted to enter a profit taking buy order to get flat. I tried to enter these orders as OCO, but TWS would not accept the second buy order, EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE OCO. Guess I'll baby sit this one.

    Cant buy bonds with IB

    Why 3 days? That's ridiculous. IB is forcing its customers that want to go long these contracts to buy the (usually less liquid) back month. I think IB could easily cut this down to 1 day(when December would have a 1 tick spread). Why couldn't it allow its customers to trade until 10am e.g...

    Planar LCDs... anybody use 'em??

    I bought 2 Planar PV-174 (17.4" screen) last summer. They have analog and digital hookups and the screens look great to me. Bright and sharp. One reason I bought was the good replacement policy. I'd buy them again.

    IB Executions during the outage

    I had a sell stop in ZBU that should have been hit but was not since IB was down. Are a/c/e stop orders native or does IB hold them? I think I'm ok, but I'm not 100% sure.

    Power Outage: which charting service shows the big moves in ZB & ES?

    Qcharts didn't! Big hole in the charts. I had no idea ZBU went to 106'12 and ES dropped to 973.25 after the power outage announcement until I looked at Futuresource.com. I couldn't trade anyway since I use IB, but a backup broker is definitely in my future.

    IB Quote problems today

    Yes. One of my TWS was fine, while on the other one the quotes were bad and then disappeared altogether for a while.
