Interactive Broker connections issues

[VDMTrader]

For some reason my IBK connection no longer updates my charts when it previously worked fine. I have a series of LSE listed ETFs that I analyse in NT8. IBK connects fine and I can get historic data but the chart won't load and show the current price. I have tried a number of NT8 versions and using IBK Trader Workstation v 10.23.2a.

Can you suggest what I can do to resolve this issue.
