Hi Chen

I don't think there's a way round that with TWS. But it can be made reasonably painless with IBC and IB Gateway.

With Gateway you only get a forced restart over the weekend. I schedule my Gateway to shutdown early afternoon Saturday anyway and restart?early afternoon Sunday (UK time).

IBC has a really useful setting that will keep retrying if you miss the first 2FA request.

Subject [ibc] 2FA prevents TWS restarts without human authorisation

Hi,

For the last 2 years, I have kept TWS consistently and constantly running through daily scheduled and every odd unscheduled restart with the need for any human intervention.

This is achieved through the help of IBC and Watchdog.

Unfortunately, with the recently mandated 2FA security measure, no restart can be completed without a human acknowledgement through the IB Key on my iPhone.

I have been searching for a remedy/workaround for weeks. The closest I have come across is to set the Lock and Exit behaviour in TWS to "Restart" instead of "Logoff", which did not improve things. It still requires the IB Key authorisation.

I would be immensely grateful if someone in the community could offer me tips/suggestions, including switching to IB Gateway if absolutely necessary to restore the convenience I used to have.

Thanks very much in advance!

I am running IBC 3.16.2+ and TWS from 10.19+ on both Linux and macOS platforms.

Chen
