Yesterday ESU3 got me data from IB. Today 6/6 not so much. IB, of course, washing their hands of everything as soon as you mention third party software.

Today -- Invalid Instrument: No security definition has been found for the request

Anyone else experiencing this or know what's happened?

I've changed nothing software wise lately either...

Thanks for the reply. I have not updated MW in quite a while (trying) to avoid things like this...

no worries but that in itself might also be the issue. as IB updates it's platforms, whatever changes they make sometimes also impact 3rd part platforms as well. hence why they update around the same intervals to make sure that the newest update works with their newest update. just a thought but good luck

Did you get this resolved?

I recommend checking in TWS under "More Options >" for the Version. MotiveWave is only tested for compatibility with STABLE. Perhaps IB may have updated?

I recreated my workspace and it seems to be OK again. I'm assuming the workspace I was using somehow got corrupted and was sending an invalid request.
