Welcome to Israel.

Seriously though, call and ask for the "compliance" guy.

If that doesnt get you anywhere call the congressman where ib is located and then try the state department.

Good luck! Let us know what country you decide to do business with after you pull your money out of usa.

Not advised: uk, denmark, switzerland, australia.
 
So the part that says:- "You are trying to submit an order without having market data for this instrument" is to be disregarded. Why?
 
@tonyf , thanks for posting. This is a very good reminder, as I frequently travel to some unconventional places and doing something as innocent as a travel trip, could potentially be financially crippling.

I'm curious how this situation gets resolved.
 
Just to be clear, I am not pointing fingers to IBKR here but merely stressing compliance and capital controls risks across the board.
