I am having trouble during auto trading. I am unable to set the TimeInForce to good-till-canceled. All orders are created as day orders: // Create an s_SCNewOrder object. s_SCNewOrder NewOrder; NewOrder.OrderQuantity = Contracts.GetInt(); NewOrder.OrderType = SCT_MARKET; NewOrder.TimeInForce = SCT_TIF_GTC; //Specify a Stop and target NewOrder.Stop1Offset = LongStop; NewOrder.Target1Offset = TargetOffset.GetInt()*sc.TickSize; I am using IB as brokers and the IB presets are set to GTC. I am not getting any error messages from IB so I don't think it is a problem on the brokers side. Are there any settings in SC that could cause orders to default to day orders? -BD |

Is the problem that the Attached Orders are day orders?

Yes, the attached orders are day orders. This happens both using simulated and non-simulated trading modes. -BD |

We have to go through a test for this. And see what the issue is.
