4.4.91 is a recommended update for all users. This release addresses a number of small issues since the 4.4.81 and 4.4.86 releases.

• IBKR trades blocked due to outdated data warnings. Improved logging of these occurrences and tweaked logic to prevent false positive warnings.

• Fixed: ExpectedMoveBreach (R1) triggers would not fire in some situations.

• Fixed: Schwab opening order logged at $0 in some rare situations.
• Fixed: Partial profit target orders use quantity to close the full trade at TradeStation and Schwab in some cases, not the intended partial quantity .
• Fixed: Trades with exits set to minutes in trade, were causing problems in 4.4.81/86 releases.

4.4.86 is a recommended update for all users. This release addresses a number of small issues since the 4.4.81 release.

• Tradier delta not properly loaded for longer DTE trades opened on prior days.

• ES data not loading as expected at IBKR.

• Next OrderID error at IBKR if the next orderID is really 1, because you've never traded at IBKR at all.
• Schwab fill progression going slower than expected.
• R1 breach trigger fired twice at Tradestation. Added code that should prevent that.
• Fixed scenario where fill progression logic could continue to adjust price beyond the min entry price targeted.
• Loaded market data 1 minute earlier for upcoming scheduled trades since TWS is slow to feed all contract data over.
• Switched EMA calculations at Tradier to use SPX since they added live SPX data. Up until now it was using SPY, even for SPX trades because that was all we used to have.

TAT v4.4.81 is now available with a number of fixes and improvements. This is a recommended upgrade for all users.

Dynamic Data DTE Subscriptions

This version include a new approach to managing options data subscriptions for longer DTE trades. Instead of requesting longer DTE data all day via TAT Settings, TAT will now automatically subscribe to the needed DTEs just before scheduled trade entries that need the data. This will significantly lower the number of "lines" of data that TAT needs from IBKR to support longer term trade like calendars.

More Information about this new configuration can be found here.

New Features

• Added the ability to review scheduled tasks logs for up to 7 days. See the new Task Log option on the Reporting page.
• Safety Feature - Detailed monitoring of market data for both price and delta for all open trades. If price or delta are not updated as frequently as expected, a warning will be sent to the user.

Bug Fixes and Other minor updates:

• Improved profit target order monitoring at IBKR.
• Improved handling of TradeStation market data stream disconnects.
• Fixed issue with certain custom trades showing inverted Delta calculation.

• Fix trade selection issue for LongPut and LongCall trades that would not select the same strike as an existing long trade.
• Fix issue where stop limit orders at IBKR were not using user selected trigger.
• Added trade template option to always close long legs when closing trade. Only enable this feature on templates where you are positive the longs will always be marketable (not 0 bid).

TAT v4.3.63 is now available with a number of fixes and improvements. This is a recommended upgrade for all users.

Bug Fixes and Other minor updates:

• Added user confirmation prompt when exiting TAT.

IBKR API Version Update

• This build upgraded the internal IBKR API code to version 10.42. This version provides some performance improvements over previous versions.
• We also improved the TAT code that interacts with the TWS API to improve performance and eliminate issues that were seen occasionally where the TAT UI would freeze briefly during periods of lots of orders filling at the same time.

TAT v4.2.16 Update is now available and is recommended for all users.

Custom Trades (Butterfly, BWB, Diagonals and more)

This release adds the ability to build custom trades with up to 4 legs, for trade setups that don't fit any of the standard trade types already available. This will allow you to trade butterflies, broken wing butterflies, diagonals, double diagonals and more.

Linked Schedule Entries

You can now link one scheduled entry so that it will only execute if a previously scheduled trade has filled. For example, you can have a call spread entry that is linked to a put spread entry, so that the call will only enter after the put trade is opened.

Important: Updated Trade Re-Entry Logic

Reentries are now linked to the scheduled task where the parent trade was opened, not the trade itself. This impacts IronCondor trade entries where the put and call spreads are managed separately. Previously a max reentry count of 1 would have allowed a reentry when the call trade was closed/stopped and also when the put trade was stopped, because they were treated as independent. Now, with a max reentry count of 1, only the side (put or call) that stopped first would trigger a reentry.

Tradier: SPX and VIX real time data now available in TAT

Previously, VIX data in TAT from Tradier was delayed and more recently as a derived value that didn't match the live cash price. SPX pricing was estimated by TAT during the day. Starting Feb 4th, VIX data is the real time cash price for all TAT users, and starting with TAT v4.2.15, SPX is now live instead of estimated.

Trading Logic Updates

• When an opening trade is rejected with a margin/buying power error when a long is being reused, TAT will attempt the trade a second time without reusing the long leg.
• Added Trade_PositionTotalDelta condition, which matches the Total Delta column reported for an open trade. This field is the trade delta multipled by the quantity.
• Allow Stop Limit orders during extended hours trading.
• When using EMA conditions at TradeStation, enforce that the newest 1 minute bar data is available before triggering a trade.

Other Updates

• Improved details in trade level logging.
• Added UnderlyingSymbol to CSV trade export.
• Improved outdated quote detection logic at TradeStation.
• Added a clear error message if trying to trigger a trade for a symbol that does not have market data enabled.
• Added warning message if TAT detects the market close time is set incorrectly, based on the computer's time zone.
• Mask sensitive information (such as account numbers and webhook information) when displayed on screen and in TAT logs.
• Added strategy and template name to log files during trade entry.
• Log the Long/Short ratio TAT calculated during trade entry.
• Improved outdated quote detection for calendar trade entries.

Fixes

• Corrected a situation where a newly opened long strike might be classified as available for reuse, during nearly simultaneous trade entries at TradeStation.
• Fixed issue where commissions/fees were not shown on the Reports page for debit trades.
• Corrected an issue where Trade Closed notifications could be sent too soon when a large closing order was only partially filled.

TAT v4.0.91 is now available with several small bug fixes. It is recommended for anyone who is using the Template/Schedule import functionality.

Bug Fixes and Other minor updates:

• Exported/Imported schedules are now time zone aware. For any newly exported schedules they are timed to your market close time. If you share with someone else running TAT in a different time zone, the entry times will be automatically adjusted when they are imported.
• Fix possible issues importing trade templates created in an older version of TAT and imported into v4.0.88.
• Added some more explicit logging to EMA calculations for TradeStation.
• Fix that better handles an error from TradeStation when placing an order.

• Short/Long ratio

NEW: Simplified Trade Log ReviewTAT has added a new ability to review the log details for each individual trade entry or exit task or trade previews. This will allow you to view only the log entries that are relevant to that task without it being cluttered with a bunch of unrelated data. This will show the results of each condition evaluated for a trade and also all of the steps for strike selection.

To view the log for a specific task, select it on the Schedule Tasks list and click the new Log button. More Information

**Trading Logic Updates: **

• Calendar trades were selecting different deltas when the desired delta did not fit the min/max premium criteria. TAT will now bypass the trade entry entirely, reporting the min/max premium was not matched.
• Added additional safety feature to ensure TAT will cancel opening entry orders submitted to TWS that are not filled in the expected time. This will help prevent orders that TWS was holding in an ApiPending state and then activating unexpectedly later in the day.

Bug Fixes and Other minor updates:

• Deltas not loaded at Tradier for open positions for DTEs not subscribed to market data for.
• Improved safety check for calendar trade entry that was incorrectly reporting outdated data if there were not enough strikes loaded for longer DTEs.
• Fix for a rare issue where at IBKR when orders were not activated as expected in TWS, TAT could activate more than one order for the same entry task, rarely resulting in an extra trade entry.
• Fix to ensure Tradier will close trades when a stop order is rejected due to margin/BP issues if that safety feature is enabled. This was not working properly previously.
• Fix exit condition LongCallOTMPts, which was not triggering correctly.
• Improvement to logging error with stops that triggered within just a few seconds of market close, resulting it trades being marked expired that actually stopped.
• Fix for issue where EMA data at TradeStation could be incorrect if multiple trades were scheduled at the same time using EMA data.
• Updated wording on trade template from Credit to Premium to be more accurate for debit trades.
