  • Error "Error validating ib request - please enter a local symbol or an expiry" for FX

    A trade request was sent from esignal to IB last night and failed due to "Error validating ib request - please enter a local symbol or an expiry"

    I believe I have the symbology specified properly.

    Does anyone know the correct expiry specification for symbols I cannot find any information in the forum, knowledgebase, or IB's web site. I'm not sure what this field signifies for CASH FOREX as as far as I know there is no "expiration" per se.

    EUR A0-FX
    GBP A0-FX
    CHF A0-FX
    AUD A0-FX
    CAD A0-FX
    EURJPY A0-FX

    Thanks very much.
