In TWS, some stock contracts have a little red circle next to their contract name.? Hovering the mouse over it says something to the effect of "The SEC Rule 201 ("The Up-Tick Rule") has been triggered ...", and indicates that the up-tick rule in in effect, limiting the prices at which you can sell that stock.

How do I determine whether a contract is in the up-tick state through the API?? There is a shortability tick type that comes through tickString(), but I don't ever get anything in that field, even for stocks with the up-tick rule in place.

Any help/ideas appreciated!

Hi,

Unfortunately no the 'short sale restriction' status in Tws isn't available programmatically from IB - either from the API or the ftp site.

Hi,

Has there been some update to this limitation, or is there a way?

to get Uptick Status through API?
