Penny options with IB: Results?

Doesn't matter -
Just be careful before you place that order so you don't wind up with the same- check beforehand where that option trades.

That's just my advice.
 
listen on the audit u are able to see at what price u send the order on the order sent line and acknowledged line: if it is 2.63 on both lines or even in the first and 2.40 on filled line u may not have a case.
Quote from tef8:

Audit trails show me selling for 2.40

I did not!

I typed in 2.63 limit clicked on "T" for transmit

Watched it immediately sell for 2.40!

2.63! that was typed in! NOT what the audit trails show! (dead serious about that)

I did update TWS before trading today, don't know if that had anything to do with it.

I understand what you are saying.

And what I said is what happened!

It's almost like you need to screenshot your entire trading day to be able to get a trade straightened out.
 
Perhaps an indication of something at least for liquid options.
But if it's liquid options then one can't really tell if it's BOX, or if it's IB's penny options that brought the results.

If you really know what Bitstream is saying, and you get the evidence together maybe then you should take this further. Perhaps by starting a new thread with the appropriate title will attract people who can give additional input.

I did several hundred GOOG 490 time spreads today at pennies. I was filled dead-smack at ThVal [$6.95]. Amazing.
