Hi Ben, thank you for reaching out. We cannot replicate your issue. Can you please create a web ticket with more details, so that we can best assist? https://spr.ly/IBKR_TicketCampus

Hello Eddie, thank you for asking. If the product you are trading does not trade outside of regular trading hour session (like a US Stock option) the “Allow outside RTH” option within the Order Ticket or the Time-in-Force drop down will be grayed out and you will be unable to add the attribute. Also, MKT/LMT orders for a CME future and MKT/LMT/Stop orders for an ICE/Nybot future are active throughout the 24 hour trading day (both before and after the contract’s designated RTH session) and do not require the Outside RTH attribute to be selected, so they too will be grayed out. Please view this FAQ for more details: https://arclightcapital.cc/faq?id=34474091

We hope this helps!

Hello, thank you for reaching out. You can set high and low price lines and labels in settings. After opening advanced charts, click the gear icon. Then navigate to the Display options. After finding the price axis settings, you can enable the high/low labels. Then click Apply> Save. We hope this helps answer your question!

Thank you for your question about your Iron Condor order outside of Regular Trading Hours (RTH).
The message you received is actually confirming that your order will be sent to the exchange at 8:30 AM CT, which is when Regular Trading Hours begin. This is happening because:
You submitted your order during non-regular hours
Your order has “Enable RTH” selected (which is the default setting)
Complex option orders like Iron Condors can typically only be executed during Regular Trading Hours
When you receive the message that “the order will be sent to exchange at 8:30 AM CT,” this means:
Your order is accepted by ARC’s system
It will be queued until the market opens
At 8:30 AM CT, it will be routed to the exchange for potential execution
You’re not missing anything – this is the expected behavior for RTH-enabled option orders submitted outside of market hours. The order isn’t being rejected; it’s simply being held until regular market hours begin.
If you want to modify any aspects of your order before it’s sent to the exchange, you can do so through the Pending Orders section of your trading platform. We hope this helps!

Hi Simon, thank you for asking. Stop Limit orders can be set to work Outside RTH, but plain Stop orders do not work outside regular trading hours. Please view this FAQ for more information: https://arclightcapital.cc/faq?id=691836583

Hi, thank you for reaching out. Margin accounts that have lower Intraday futures margins will have the higher Overnight future margin requirements go into effect 15 minutes before the end of that future contract’s designated Regular Trading Hours session. You can monitor the “Look Ahead Available Funds” and the “Look Ahead Next Change” in your Account Window’s Available for Trading section (Click on the green “+” on the right to expand the section). The Look Ahead Next Change time shows the time the Intraday and Overnight margins will change. The Look Ahead Available Funds includes any amount of the change in the margin requirement from Intraday to Overnight margins.

Hello, thank you for reaching out. The ChartTrader hotkeys should be configured separately from TWS Hotkeys. Please view this FAQ for instructions to configure ChartTrader hotkeys: https://arclightcapital.cc/faq?id=38440984

Also, it is possible to order through presets during Outside RTH. Please view Traders’ Glossary for more information.
To configure your hotkeys: https://arclightcapital.cc/faq?id=32650708

For now, we have only basic hotkeys available:

https://ibkrguides.com/releasenotes/ibkrdesktop/2023/preview/ntws-preview-v0.04.htm

You can assign any keystroke, or a combination of the “Ctrl” and “Shift” keys with one of the 26 keyboard letters, to map specific order creation and order transmission commands, such as buy, sell, transmit and cancel.

Advanced keys are certainly in our development queue for future releases. We hope this information is helpful!

Hi Sunil, thank you for reaching out and we apologize for the delayed response. It is not possible to submit market orders outside of RTH, including a stop loss. Also, Trailing stop orders can only be attached to limit or stop limit orders only. Please review this FAQ for more details: https://arclightcapital.cc/faq?id=71890902

We hope this information is helpful.

Hello, thank you for asking. No, there are not additional costs/commissions incurred when trading outside RTH. You can review our Commission structure here: https://spr.ly/CampusCommissions
