Looks like everyone's trying to access IB's account management all at once.

You noticed the same thing? I could not get into the website.

IB still hasn't canceled any of my market subscriptions and everything is working as before.

Do you work for IB? Why are you defending their rates and rate increases?

So because they charged just $10 prior, we should be "grateful" and not complain about a 45% price increase and just shut up about it?

My point still stands- the other brokerages have not announced price increases, and the changes they made do NOT warrant or justify a 45% increase. I would have rather have them say there were just raising rates, period, instead of hiding it behind "regulatory issues".

I use IB for futures streaming data- I can get AMEX, NYSE, and NASDAQ streaming RT data from other brokerages at no additional cost, which I will.

You are so right for 45% increase, let's make it an even 100% increase then you can really start chirping.

It's just me or everything goes on like before ? I still have the US Value Bundle Waiver.

Yeah, I still have the "US Value Bundle Waiver" too. But I'm also subscribed to quotes from NYSE, NASDAQ, and AMEX, so I'm not sure I'd notice any difference anyway...

The US Value Bundle disappeared the day after I last posted. It's been replaced with US Securities Snapshot and Futures Value Bundle.
I do mostly index options these days so luckily they didn't mess with the OPRA waiver.

They both show up for me...

Just received a notice that, Starting April 1st (hmmmm.......April Fool's Day....lol) I can no longer be subscribed to the Value Bundle and need to get the Snapshot Bundle....but not sure I want to bother.

I notice there is a CME Level 1 subscription that says "For display only" What does "for display only" mean?

Thanks.

Does it affect NYMEX?

The language is so confusing.

I also look at the real time NYMEX, but it note said display only

Yesterday I received new email asking immediate action.

Sounds that now is finally definitive. Yesterday all was fine but this morning SPY, GLD, QQQ, USO, VIX, are either N/A or yellow in my dashboard.

If I try to open a chart with any of them I get an empty screen with "No market data permission for X".

And in subscription screen the waiver is now gone as well.

Just a note: whoever has CME Real-Time Level II for 6 USD doesn't need to add CME Real-Time level I for 1.25 USD. Sounds obviously but some may have it duplicate.
