And over the weekend, IB removed the 1 sh of an untradeable asset from one of the accounts. Since moving to the t2.small (3 trading days now), 5 TP/IBG pairs have not had any IB connection errors (which had occurred several times on the t2.micro with 4 pairs). And, this morning, with the untradeable asset removed from the one repeatedly failing account, the TP error did not recur. So, I'm expecting smooth sailing going forward on the t2.small. The one remaining problem is TP (pre-release 4D) does not handle delayed opening orders. It submits the order, gets the response from IB that cash is not available (because the close orders have not yet executed), but apparently never reissues the failed opening orders. Manual intervention is required to place the failed orders after cash has been freed by the close orders. | |
