Interactivebrokers and filling orders

Interactive brokers is one of the worlds leading brokers for electronically providing data to traders. It is cheap, vey reliable, outstanding resources and a wide productrange to almaost all markets in the world.

A minus allways was and is that IB doesnot provide historically data: you have manage that by yourself. Since a while they provide a backfill up to 100 days for most of their products which is a huge advancement.
Filling orders never have been a problem. I don't have experience with the EUR/dollar future. Reading some forums about FOREX trading learns you orderfilling may be a problem for FOREX traders.

Somebody wrote me a mail this morning about orderfilling with IB on the FDAX. He is currently trading with 4 contracts and he has the suspicion the filling is not allways done simultaneously. Now this would be very strange and a very negative thing for IB because I can't imagine 4 contracts to be that much on the FDAX market. Or is there some bias to smaller inverstors? I'll try to explore this matter a bit further. >>
