I am having issues when I go to flatten my entire position. Many times I have to hit the flatten button twice in order to get it to work. I'll get errors like it exceeds current limits or a position doesn't exist. How can it break the limits when I'm closing out my entire position? The error message is below:

I need to know how to close out of a position immediately without having issues like this. Please advise.

We cannot totally be sure of the reason for that error, but you should enable this option and hopefully it will work around it:
