Hi,

On 24.10.2013 I've noticed that EURUSD was untradable during some periods:
first time about 6 minutes (from 16:17:20 to 16:23:40)
and another time about 24 minutes (from 16:48:27 to 17:11:54)

What did cause a such weird behavior of EURUSD?

The code and its log are attached.

        out = context.getConsole().getOut();
        context.setSubscribedInstruments(EnumSet.of(INSTRUMENT), true);

            IInstrumentStatusMessage m = (IInstrumentStatusMessage) message;
            if ((m.getInstrument() == INSTRUMENT) && (m.isTradable() || tradable) && (!m.isTradable() || !tradable)) {
                out.println(String.format("%s Instrument %s %s tradable",
                                          DateUtils.format(m.getCreationTime()),
                                          m.getInstrument(),
                                          m.isTradable() ? "is" : "is NOT"));
                tradable = m.isTradable();
            }
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void onAccount(IAccount account) throws JFException {
    }

    @Override
    public void onStop() throws JFException {
    }
}
