We saw the bulletin below come in from IB over the weekend. This will affect how the IB Provider identifies new contracts for data and trading.
Specifically, in the User Data folder, the IBFutures.txt file needs to adapt to the exchange update. We'll try to do it transparently in the next IB Build update, but if a contract that you're trading is affected before that, find the contract in this file, edit the exchange name, save, and restart WealthLab.

IB Build 18 (to be released with WL8 Build 20) should take care of Waves 1, 2, and 3 without any action your part.
Edit -
If you trade the Wave 1 contracts, you'll need to edit their exchanges in IBFutures.txt. Alternatively, you can delete IBFutures.txt before installing IB Build 18.
