So I apologize that you received incorrect information. To fix it, uninstall TWS, then reinstall version 935.3 back. The links to the latest supported versions are kept here. We stay with the older versions of MB Desktop & TWS because: 1. Both MB & IB update their versions often. 2. With how these 2 brokers are designed within our software, it is necessary to make pre-releases whenever we update to a broker's latest version. 3. When an update to the latest version occurs it requires more than just updating the Trade Processor. For example, when the TWS version is updated, we have to come out with a new Trade Processor as well as PR updates to VisualTrader & OmniTrader. Testing must be done on each of those to make sure each works with the new version. (We can't update only the TP, then people with OT and/or VT on the same machine won't be compatible). 4. It takes time to do the above testing & release new updates to everything. We stick with a version for a while because that is the version that we have done testing on & we know it works with our software. We designed it this way to prevent MB or IB from releasing a new version that could possibly stop working suddenly in our software. We'll be updating our software to use the latest versions very soon though. We have plans to update both MB & IB, but I'm not sure when yet. | |
