Even if it did work previously, it was just a lucky situation, as Interactive Brokers typically needs more information with the symbol, which is what it is asking about. Refer to the following (note the Stock Symbol section on the page): Interactive Brokers Symbols For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
