It's not that Sierra Chart is not "taking" the orders, it is that Rithmic is not responding properly with the information on what has occurred with the order since it was sent to them.

There were issues earlier with connectivity to Rithmic, and our guess is that this is related. You really need to ask Rithmic about why you are getting that error.

The problem is you are not using the correct symbols. The symbols we see in that Trade Service Log, are incorrect and are not Rithmic formatted symbols at all.

However, those orders should be rejected immediately by the Rithmic system.

Translate the symbols with this Edit menu command:
Edit Menu: Edit >> Translate Symbols To Current Service
