That definitely shows the position in the Chart, but it also makes the current attached stop orders that exists in IB disappear (to be expected) but then when I try and enter a trade in the chart ( I tested a buy limit below market) IB returns the message ...''Symbol Error - (unknown symbol with ID 203) is unknown, unavailable, or improperly formatted. No security definition has been found for the request | 2019-07-08 12:39:47.167'' EDIT:---- FYI - having IB look into this as there are other small issues they have with CFDs and pricing (ie; time and sales don't match with symbols) Thus I can only assume they are related. (If I can get them back to simply Cash spot FX it would be easier, but they are swamped with regulation I think) If you have similar issues or solutions until I hear from IB please let me know. ///////////// EDIT: 22 July (more for future user information) IB finally fixed their problems and I am back trading Forex WITHOUT the use of CFDs - happy to announce that SC working perfectly and while CFDs might be a work around, IB need to ensure messages back to SC are correct.
