Hi John,

Can you help me a bit please.
I am trying to open a position from Sierra charts to Intractive brokers but it doesn't let me.
I thought in the begging that i had margin problem so i went to execute a trade directly from Interactive Brokers account and i could
Do you think i must make some adjustments on my settings in order to continue executing orders from Sierra.
Below i have copied the message that pops up when i try and execute an order from Sierra charts.

Thank you again,

Mike

You need to contact Interactive Brokers about this. That is their error message:
