IB ignoring stops today?

Jayford

For the first time ever, I've just had IB completely ignore my stop. Price went through it twice. I even checked the log to be sure it wasn't something I screwed up.

Anyone else having this prob? It was in ES about 2 mins after employment report. Market wasn't even trading all that fast.
 
Quote from Bingoking:

I had one ignored in the YM last night. I think there is a setting someplace for trading outside rth.
More...

That's what I was thinking also as I rarely trade outside regular session.

I'll look into this,

Thanks, Jayford.

PS I am not going to even bother asking IB as it will take them a month to get back to me.
 
Yep,

That was it. Took about a minute to find setting on my own under configure - order defaults.

I've been using IB for years, and never noticed that (I don't play with my defaults).

Cheers.
Jay
