I know you all are ridiculously busy have you checked into this? <previous post> I can reproduce this error daily...

very simple. There is a network connection to Trader Workstation. If that connection is a lost/closed, then Sierra Chart will try to reconnect and during that time the connection status will no longer be in a "Connected" state


Does this include timeouts, any difference between Trader Workstation and the IB Gateway (this is what I'm referencing)? Last week I saw a user online, 1 min before market regular hrs close post "IBKR Down lol" I checked the IB Gateway and saw the "Server reconnecting attempt in xSeconds..." and SC still had a green connection.

It appears if the TWS/IB Gateway connection is 'closed' SC turns Yellow/Notifies, if TWS/IB Gateway connection is merely 'reconnecting' SC doesn't register and believes the connection is still live.
