IB Down

[musicman]

This is also one of the very few major issues I have had with IB over the years.
FYI – Every broker I have ever used has had a major outage at some point .
I have no positions today however I for sure understand the stress when you do and can not trade !!

They're not answering the phones because everybody there is busy trying to sit on the market to keep it from moving.

It seems thier authentication is down... I couldn't get into account mgmt. I came here to see if this was a persitent issue too... lol

What is this about the CBOE shutting down until 11am? Is this a major issue with the exchanges?

Yeah, we all got the call. CBOE is shutting down until 11am EDT.

Then why are the live quotes at CNN Money still moving?
