Hey,
i'm trying to do livetrading on interactive brokers since beginning of february. At the beginning i couldn't get it to work at all. Yesterday it finally traded but only a small part of my equity, whereas a backtest for the same period of time startet trading instantly with all the money available.
The log only gives me this:
2021-02-10 20:32:29 :Data for symbol FUBO has been limited due to numerical precision issues in the factor file. The starting date has been set to 10/7/2020.2021-02-16 05:32:37 :Brokerage Info: Connectivity between IB and Trader Workstation has been lost.Last one is just a daily reconnect i guess. Would be happy if anybody could help me. Thanks!

Hi Roluf,
We suggest adding more logging to the algorithm to verify whether the methods that place orders were called in the live algorithm. If the algorithm doesn't show that orders were invalid, those methods were probably not called.
Best,
Derek Melchin
