Regarding the etimated position in queue

Global Settings >> Chart Trade Settings >> Enable Estimated Position in Queue Tracking
Global Settings >> Chart Trade Settings >> Working Orders >> Display Additional Order Information


Is there an ACSIL api for this? If not, is it possible for you to add one ?

An API for what? To be able to enable those options through ACSIL? Or to be able to access the estimated position in queue for a particular order?

I just downloaded version 1891. Is this 'Estimated Position in the Queue' value now accessible with a spreadsheet? I thought I might see it as a new study or in the J column of my spreadsheet. Please advise. Thank you.

How would this work on a spreadsheet? Individual orders are not included on a spreadsheet.

This has nothing to do with individual orders I just simply want to use the value that your Estimated Position in the Queue provides and use it in a spreadsheet. I don't care how I get it there.

For instance, there is a study for depth of market data. If I want to use the bid size in a spreadsheet I can add it to a column because it's subgraph 1 on the study. Same with stacking and pulling which are subgraphs 5 and 6. If the ID for the study is 7 then I'd put =ID7.SG1@3 in a column and it would give me the bid size as it changes. If the Estimated Position in the Queue was say, subgraph 7 in this same study I could add that value to my spreadsheet by putting =ID7.SG7@3. Now I can use the queue position value with other studies. Make sense?

I've also noticed in version 1882 instances where the estimated queue position is higher than the number of orders left. This of course is not possible. I've attached a screen shot that shows my queue position is 26 with 21 orders left. This happens often. I did not see this happen in version 1852. Can you fix it please?

What is the new ACSIL function name ?

there is no function. It is part of the SCTradeOrder structure.

If there is an interest I can make a study available in my request bundle so it is available as an SG.

Just letting you know that in version 1894 I'm still seeing the wrong calculation for the Estimated Position in the Queue. As soon as my order is placed it tends to be 5 positions higher than the number of orders left and pretty much stays this way until I am filled. I've attached a screenshot. The DOM shows 71 orders left and when my order is placed it shows that my queue position is 76. I know this is not the intention.

Can you take a look and fix it?

This is how the Estimated Position in Queue works. It adds the size of your order to the position. Since you have an order with a quantity of 5, the Estimated Position in Queue when you first enter the order is going to be 5 higher than the total depth at that level. This is explained in the documentation for the Estimated Position in Queue here:
Global Trade Settings Windows: Enable Estimated Position in Queue Tracking (Global Settings >> Chart Trade Settings >> General >> Position in Queue)

We apologize for the delay with this. This thread has been taken over by other users and your post got overlooked.

There is no new function. There is this new structure member: s_SCTradeOrder::EstimatedPositionInQueue;
