Still getting error messages as we have before. The child orders are sent along with the market order but then canceled due to not being able to produce a accurate tick size. I've attached a screen shot referencing this.

Order Modification Error: Tick Size is not known. Unable to modify order. Internal Order ID: 46464. Service Order ID: 3153 | 2016-02-02 07:03:37 *
Trading message from IB: The price does not conform to the minimum price variation for this contract. Error Code: 110. ServiceOrderID: 3152. | 2016-02-02 07:03:37

Just another note the average price fill in IB (1.20) and Orders (1.20) under Orders and Positions is exactly the same, looking at Positions the fill price (1.21024) is different under Orders and Positions. Im unsure why this is, has this problem been an issue with other users before? Also the child orders are being sent at the exact same time as the parent order, can we modify orders after a duration of time, say 10 seconds? This might allow us to then attach child orders as the tick size can then be recognized.
