I have a related comment: FED minutes failed to result in a breakout to the upside (for which cards were aligned so to speak)... If THAT can't push another leg up, what will?

Guilty as charged. But in my defense I am trying to make it work (for me), addunno is that really something I can be faulted for(?). Oh well whatever I should just accept that the way my orders (of this particular type) are being handled is not what I intuitively expect as most favorable...

FYI I have had this happen with options (slightly OTM) on expiration day with IB. Impossible to put in a sell order to close option position, for if memory serves me well roughly the reason you have explained. Granted, I do not recall if there was a zero bid situation in all of those instances...

Others DID NOT WORK either, scumbag. That was documented here. Keep posting your non-sense. Actually why ARE you still posting on this thread? TROLL or are you IB staff? I am puzzled as to why you are so incensed by my posting my issue in this thread, enough so as to barrage a stranger with...

fuck you and the short bus you rode in on

So then it is either attributed to the way I am configured OR it is a problem specific to my installation. I have the very latest (stand alone not server based) build

You'r welcome & BTW you can have as many orders as you want in same OCA group. What was the other stock/routing that went green on order placement, so that I may attempt to reproduce?

Behavior described in detail. All stock limit orders on an OCA group. You have a problem with the fact that I cannot supply an example? I can, pick a ticker, any ticker. Why are you even here posting your non-sense? TROLL

ALL STOCKS as stated in OP, not a transient problem, a PERSISTENT problem. Note OCA order not same thing as bracket as you have described. An OCA group order is one cancels all, it is the part of the bracket order that submits after you entry order (the way you are doing it). I do not use OCA...

No it does not. I have posted the issue very clearly. There are no options to do away with the problem. Perhaps in theory there are, but in practice there are not. Now, it is entirely conceivable that I have this issue as the result of a "glitch" in the software specific to me and my...

IB has reps that troll these forums.... Interesting that they are not choosing to take on this topic.

The presumption here is that a choice can be made to transmit or not a limit order. Where? When I click transmit that is not good enough? And that the default is held on IB's servers. Seems odd. No such option anyways that I am aware of. Normal behavior would be this. Limit order placed, it...

I can assure you your replies in this thread are of no value whatsoever to the topic at hand, as suggested by SIG

One can only prudently trade using size/leverage w/ a stop in place. For a daytrader that stop must be "tight" eg w/in a one hour time frame dispersion most of the time, by its very nature. These stops have an overwhelming probability of being hit, in our new AI marketplace. The reason is...

Nowadays stocks only because you can find such very unique stories/themes/dynamics; & if able to exercise extreme patience and prejudice... Requires PLUNGING some size & taking the UNIQUE risk. Options on said stocks, not like the good old days, not "easy" but sometimes worthwhile. The more...

You don't. There, got it? No? OK, I will show you by rephrasing your question: How do you know when RANDOM data is trending or chop? ... You don't, & if you keep looking for an answer to an irrational question... Off with your head

(& also) is anybody else vexed by the seemingly endless list of bugs/annoyances in TWS?

I am posting in this general trading thread because topic is or should be relevant to many of us here. Since IB customer service is not being responsive and is essentially dismissing this incredible flaw in basic trading functionality, I am putting the topic in the spotlight for all to see...

Back in '08 a model was developed based on inflation. A few interesting things came of it but I found this to be the most intriguing. Using macroeconomic data, & some market return data, this bubble-o-meter of sorts became apparent. Notice the clustering of "crash" events at one extremity of the...
