These problems may be due to a recent upgrade to ver 1224.

I enter orders and trade from the charts.
For past 2 weeks or so have noted the following very inconvenient changes.

It is now impossible to distinguish between working bracket/associated orders that have been filled and associated orders that have not yet been filled; previously they were identified with "child" or pending. They appear identical on the chart. Also before was able to cancel an associated stop without canceling the associated profit taker.

Another issue (not new but have just lived with) is that when trading multiple contracts the average price displayed does not line up with the IB value when taking a profit/loss

Please advise
Thank you

A filled order will not even appear on the chart as an order line. It only appears as a filled order drawing. As far as the other items, what we will solve this is to disable Global Settings >> General Trade Settings >> Use Server-Side OCO and Bracket Orders.
