Has anyone noticed IB NQ/ES delays around 11am EST? I was comparing it to Tradesation and IB had a mega delay of about 45-50 seconds!!!! This is the first time I've seen this much delay in a year.

Yep, my TWS went down, too. Always at a critical moment. Must be some crooks with their hands on the switch again. I trust these markets about as far as I can spit...but what's the alternative. Someday these cats will take an extended leave of absence at the zoo, and they'll be trading for packs of cigarettes instead of dollars.

:p

The problem is that my TWS looked and behaved "normal". The quotes were just far behind the market. There should be a component meltdown at IB. These native Globex stops are a blessing!!!! I would have lost my mind by now without them!

Had the same problem, as did everyone in the ET chatroom. Delay was around 30-60 sec and as much as 1+ pts. Lasted for about 10-15mins altogether. Someone in the chat was speaking to customer service at IB, but they weren't aware of any problems at that time.
 
We had a hardware problem on our HA (High Availability Server). It froze for a minute. We are talking to the manufacturer.
