Hello my friend When i enter EUR.USD-CFD-SMART-USD into the 'Trade and Current Quote Symbol' box of the Chart Settings Section i get all the current orders relating to the EUR.USD CFD on the chart. When I try and move the Order manually by moving the orders on the chart i get the following message in the message log: Order modification failed | Order being modified does not match original order. Internal Order ID: 18867. Service Order ID: -108. Symbol: EUR.USD-CFD-SMART-USD. Account: ****** | 2020-07-09 17:40:20.369 * I thought this may help you solve the problems with CFD orders and IB. Cheers :) |

I Got this response from IB Thank you for contacting Interactive Brokers. Sample CFD(for FX underlying) Contract (in Python): contract = Contract() contract.symbol = "EUR" contract.secType = "CFD" contract.currency = "USD" contract.exchange = "SMART" Please refer to API manual for how to define contract: https://interactivebrokers.github.io/tws-api/basic_contracts.html#cfd Also there's a function reqContractDetails to retrieve all posible contracts' parameters that given symbol§ype(with currency/exchange or more parameters is better to narrow the range), this is detailed in manual: https://interactivebrokers.github.io/tws-api/contract_details.html |
