Hello, I'm getting strange behavior after setting up the Interactive Brokers data feed and creating a new intraday chart pointing to an IBKR options symbol in OPRA. I start from a new chartbook, then create a new intraday chart with the symbol (SPY-OPT-20250321-555-P-SMART-100-USD). The SPY options data loads correctly, but I also get the following messages in the log (this is just a snippet; there are many other CME-related messages): 2025-03-22 20:15:08.764 | Interactive Brokers | Starting real-time market data updates for: ESZ23-CME. ID: 1 2025-03-22 20:15:08.764 | Interactive Brokers | Subscribing to Symbol: ESZ23, SecurityType: CME, Expiration: , Exchange: , Primary Exchange: , Currency: , Multiplier: , CallPut: , Strike: , LocalSymbol: , TradingClass: 2025-03-22 20:15:08.764 | Interactive Brokers | Requesting security definition data for: ESZ23-CME.

I didn't set anything in the new intraday chart to CME. But, since it's trying to fetch CME data from IBKR, I get a lot of errors and the system attempts to re-download CME data periodically (each failing). Any ideas why this is happening? |

You have a chart, or quote board, or something that is set to show the data for that symbol.
