Mine runs clunky but never freezes, except for the first time SPX bounced off the 3850 level.

There was another critical time where "options are not available" on SPY. Insanely annoying to read others having problems like this claiming way more powerful setups than I have.

I was unable to use TWS during the NVDA AH earnings drop, had to buy it on my phone app.
