Sometimes I lose connection to TWS. Each time it tries to reconnect it says "order submitted" even though its not submitting any orders (thankfully).
From experience IB futures traders using MC, have you taken any steps to avoid such disconnections?
hearing "order submitted" "order submitted" over and over is pretty scarry too

Are you aware of the daily IB server reboot?

Re: Lose Connection to TWS
I lost connection on Friday around 8:30. Also, I lost connection just a few minutes ago. I was with OEC before, I never lost connection except maybe 1x in 2 years. Previously, I traded with MB Trading and had a lot of problems with losing connections multiple times during the day. Hope TWS is not like that

Re: Lose Connection to TWS
I looked it up. I wasn't aware but my feeling is that's not the issue. It shows as reboot 23:45.
I've had this happen at multiple times and different times of days.

If there is an issue with IB data disconnect the way you described it, you will be sure to hear multiple thunders from around the world.
