    IB TWS Question

    It sounds like your tws.xml file cannot be overwritten. Make sure this file is not read-only or locked by another process. Also, I suggest you delete your settings.xml file, which is no longer used. To find the directory containing these files, run TWS, select a ticker row, and press ctrl-alt-U.

    IB Forcing Upgrade to new TWS 851

    If you select "File/Manage Workspaces" from the main menu, you should see a workspace listed called "pre-upgrade." If you select it and click "Apply Workspace," it should restore things to the way they looked before the upgrade. Please let me know if that doesn't work.

    Interactive Brokers - stop orders - allow triggering outside of regular trading hours

    This is not quite right--the setting you mention applies to limit orders. To configure stop orders to trigger outside regular trading hours, select "Configure/Order/Stop Trigger Method" from the top-level menu and check "Allow triggering outside of regular trading hours."
