Neosafe,

Thank you for your reply.

When you say 12am EST it is midnight EST, right?

If so, I never trade near that time. I live in Europe so 12am EST is 5am here.

Also, I just trade RTH. What is happening to my orders has no certain time at all, it is completely random.

But you are also saying that "this past week a few other times IB servers were briefly down" and that makes complete sense to my case in regards to the orders execution. But not the data feed though - it has been awfully bad, but never down when I was trading and at the time my orders were stuck.

Hopefully it is the same problem and they are solving it very soon.

Meanwhile, I have spent the day researching for possible alternatives and found a company called "Sierra Futures".

Quite a coincidence, don't you think? Even the logo is similar...

Anyone here knows them or knows anything about how good and safe they are?

Again, any ideas or information is very welcome.
