Post From: Problem loading certain ES weekly options, using IB

Hi, I'm having trouble loading the option contracts for ES June 2019. If I click the "Get Options" button, it doesn't return anything. However, if I select ES September 2019, I can get the options. Another issue: if I go to the IB platform and if I place a buy limit order for, say, the weekly ES Put 2785 expiring 2019-05-17 (class EW3), Sierra Chart can "see" the order, but it thinks it's for a different contract! Sierra chart sees the order as a buy limit order for the ES-FOP-20190621-2820-P-GLOBEX-50-USD contract, which is something completely different! Could you please take a look into this? Thanks EDIT: attaching a screenshot of the order as seen on IB's Trader Workstation vs "Orders and Positions" window in Sierra. EDIT 2: in case this helps debug, there's one option contract that I traded today and that Sierra has loaded with a very weird symbol: ES-FOP-20190621 08:30 CST-2800-P-GLOBEX-50-USD. Notice that it includes time and timezone, in addition to the expiration date. That looks weird, so I thought might help debug. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2019-05-13 18:09:28
