Interactive Brokers GTC Orders outside RTH

Hi,

I have OCO orders with 'Good till Cancelled' placed on Interactive Brokers connected through API. On the API tab of IB, it shows that my OCO orders can be filled in outside RTH (regular trading hours), which is not what I want. I want my OCO orders to get triggered only during RTH. I verified on IB trade configuration that this is option not inadvertently selected. Per Sierra's online instructions to set up IB trade settings, I have both boxes 'Use Server Side OCO' and Bracket Orders unchecked.

How do I prevent the GTC orders from not getting triggered outside RTH?

Thanks,

Anil

You need to set this option to False:
Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings >> Service Setting >> Allow Orders to Fill Outside of Regular Trading Hours.

However, this is not going to affect existing orders. Only new orders. So you will want to cancel any existing orders and resubmit them.
