    After 16:30 CET there is not much time left and the underlying stock market will close at 17:30 CET (effective Nov 03). Wait for Eurex to come to the US (Jan 02, 2004).

    eurex lunch break??

    1) Yes, it´s more or less lunch break (13:00 to 14:30 CET). Watch 14:30 CET when US economic data comes out and DAX will do some very quick move (together with ES, NQ, YM).

    50% stock margin after 3:50 EST ?

    In general when TWS performs auto-liquidation it will cancel your open orders (or adjust quantity). The problem in your case might be that it was a MOC order for NYSE (instead of LMT or STP order). You should check NYSE regulations to find out what they will do with a cancel request for a MOC...

    IB: When do Day orders get cancelled?

    Trading day for index futures at Globex ends at 4:15 pm ET and day orders are not active after this time. For unknown reasons IB TWS does not remove Globex orders from "pending orders page" at this time. Just an effort to confuse customers, I guess ... :D
