Risk101 - Nice setup and dark theme! At first I thought how on earth did you get that then I realized I think you are using SC on Linux...? I have a dedicated trading rig and I'm getting pretty close to changing OS from Windows to Linux for that simple reason, the light grey borders drive me crazy!

Regarding IB, the Denali Feed & SC I think your suggestion and layout is a necessity you simply have to be able to monitor the IB connection since SC isn't and it happens daily (at 12am) and at least a few other times a month. You are correct if the API server is red, orders are not routed and if you are using the Denali Feed SC will still show green.

I am actually going to turn off the Denali Feed entirely on my IB SC instance and use IB's data feed connection. My situation is slightly different, I use another instance of SC/Denali with another broker as my primary and place trades based on that setup into the IB one. So in my case I'm not really relying on the Denali feed for that particular IB/SC setup. I'm curious too if SC will show yellow/disconnect during those times, I think so because I believe IB uses a single connection for Data Feeds and Order Routing...
