The new "feature" is a pop-up warning message whenever the new IBG signs into a paper trading account. Acknowledging the message closes it until the next IBG sign-in. This is where things get interesting. I have been using RDC to check my AWS set up in the afternoons. Every afternoon after installing the new IBG build I have noticed this message, acknowledged it, the message went away, but I would see it again the next time I returned. All morning trades were executed with the message showing, and AFAIK, there hasn't been any interference to IBG-TP operation. I called IB and talked to a fellow in the API group who explained to me something that I never knew: When the IB servers are reset every midnight, not only is TWS turned off, but all IBG's are turned off, too! The difference is that the IBG's *AUTOMATICALLY* log back in, thus the repeated appearance of the warning message for PAPER accounts. He said that there is no option to not display the message again, that it is part of the new IBG landscape Something else: IBG signs into real-monied accounts automatically, too, *EVEN WITH DOUBLE AUTHENTICATION* It's all part of the magic . . . --Mark G.
