I’ve just released version 3.18.0 of IBC. You can get it from here:

?

https://github.com/IbcAlpha/IBC/releases/tag/3.18.0

?

This Release introduces the ability to configure the API-Precautions settings in TWS and Gateway via new settings in config.ini. This is in response to in the GitHub repository.

?

These new settings are described in the API Precautions section of config.ini, and are as follows. See the notes in config.ini for further details:

?

BypassOrderPrecautions

BypassBondWarning

BypassNegativeYieldToWorstConfirmation

BypassCalledBondWarning

BypassSameActionPairTradeWarning

BypassPriceBasedVolatilityRiskWarning

BypassUSStocksMarketDataInSharesWarning

BypassRedirectOrderWarning

BypassNoOverfillProtectionPrecaution

?

These settings are intended for use in situations where the TWS/Gateway user interface is not easily accessible or where TWS/Gateway settings are not persisted between sessions, as happens with some Docker images.

?

The Release also contains some minor IBC code improvements: see the commit history for details.

?

If you do not need to use these new settings, it is not necessary to upgrade to this Release.

?

To upgrade an existing installation, extract the IBC.jar and version files from the .zip file and overwrite the existing versions. Update your config.ini with the new API Precautions section from the config.ini file in the .zip.
