thanks ninja500-- Marcin pointed me in that direction.
But as usual, IB fixed itself. Both my putrs did the same thing. i
tried various combinations, in the last week. After putting 1 putr in
Symbol Mode, and trying what i had previously tried, qmu6 worked, but
qm06 did not. as mentioned qmq06 is what i used for Aug...
on my 2nd putr, i just now created a new symbol, just like last night
and qmu6 works fine. this without putting TWS in Symbol Mode...
IB has a habit of saying nothing has changed at IB's end. Just like
when stocks would get the "symbol invalid". IB denied they changed
anything.... too bad we put up with this BS....
thanks again, ron
