all the charts were switched to “EUR/USD”…
At least that’s a “normal indication for a Symbol that does not exist any more; PRT replaced that with the first Symbol you ever had on a chart for that account (compare expired Futures on PRT-IB).
The entire order overview has also disappeared…
Same here.
That looks bad to me in the sense of : I know how hard it is for ProRealTime to make sense of their normal Detailed Reports and all in that area; this is then with their own stuff (IB version). Now it is worse because it is / has to be in cooperation with the IG data(base). Notice that the Pro-Order data has also vanished for now (see below).
The worth in the Pro-Order data in invaluable (to me) and when that stays away I will be quite blind. Or maybe it is just a part of the database which is not connected for now. Let’s hope for that.
There is also a definite upside :
The Symbol (ID) data looks OK to me now (not so around midnight yet).
- No double ID’s any more;
- My detached positions show up in their respective charts again meaning
- I would be able to deal with them normally via PRT.
I won’t try as of now, but this looks and feels that an Autotrading System would also be able to normally start, as long as you re-select the instrument (like US Tech 100 1€).
I could easily check whether I can start a System again but I rather won’t because :
In the case it is a matter of attaching a (part of the) database, it undoubtedly (?) will be so that again something goes wrong with the then current System(s) and its trade data. If I am correct on this one, this counts for everybody and when even one person starts an autotrading system, the mess will be worse up to unrecoverable. … This obviously will happen and thus we are not done with this.
Maybe it is even more important for people’s Demo data. I cannot check that because I never use the Demo account, but I reckon that in there the same things show/occur.
