Running latest TWS as suggested to other users of 1000+

Noticed on TWS that the TIF for the orders was Day.

Opened Trade Window for Chart. Changed TIF to GTC.

New order still said day.

Restarted Sierra Chart.

Checked Trade Window and it still said GTC. Placed chart order - note that Confirm Order box has Time in Force as Day - and order is still Day.


Am I missing something or is this an issue that has snuck in with the upgrades to the interface to TWS?

You must be looking at the wrong trade window. The one you are setting the Time in Force on does not belong to the chart you are submitting the order from.

Thanks for the clue. I was setting it for the bracket orders rather than the primary order.
