Neo, I use the IB Gateway, and from what I've noticed, when IB has trading interruptions, the "Interactive Brokers API Server" usually goes red. I haven't been able to test all situations of course, so I'm not sure it's a 100% indication of not being able to trade (apart from a SC -> IB interruption for some reason). My short-term solution is simply to keep the IB gateway visible. See attached screenshot. So far, if API Server goes red, then no order execution is possible.
