The main thing we see in the gif you provided is that you are trying to enter a Limit order (as the primary), but you are not entering the Limit price (it is 0.0000). You need to enter the Limit price on the Trade Window before you can select the "Buy" or "Sell" buttons. Otherwise, you will get the error you are. The other thing that we believe is an issue, but you would have to check with IB, is that you are specifying a quantity of 1, but this is Currency Pair. You should have to enter an amount greater than 1, as you are entering the value of the currency you are wanting to purchase ($100, $1000, etc.), not a lot quantity that is done for Futures or Stocks. But again, check with IB if a value of 1 is allowed. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
