IB TWS for Android Phone - Release Notes 2016

Build 8.2.783 - January 29, 2016

View TWS Scanners from the Cloud

TWS-created Market Scanners are now saved to the cloud when you exit TWS or choose to File> Save Settings and you can view these cloud-based scanners from your mobile device. Within TWS for Mobile, available scanners downloaded from the cloud appear in your Scanners list and are identified by a cloud icon. These scanners are read-only within TWS for Mobile. Updates to the scanners in TWS will be synched and available from the cloud-scanner view.

This feature is enabled by default in TWS. You can disable this feature at any time from the Lock & Exit section of Global Configuration by deselecting the "Save market scanners to cloud" setting.


Futures Calendar Spreads

Quickly enter a futures calendar spread by selecting “Futures Spread Combo” as an asset type when you enter a futures contract. Use the matrix to select the front month and back month, then tap the desired contract to add to the Watchlist or view quote details. Additionally, we have added a “Spread” button to the Quote Details from a single futures contract. Click “Spread” to specify the selected contract as the front or back month and quickly create a calendar spread.
