Hi, ExistingOrder.EstimatedPositionInQueue often returns 0 for me. Is that being first in the queue? If not, why does it show 0? Best, A |

From my testing, it only worked properly when Level2 data is on/subscribed to. Do you have level2 data? My understanding is that EstimatedPositionInQueue is an estimate so not an actual data from the market and I'm guessing it's basically a simple calculation of the Level2 bid/offer at the price of your order at the time your order was placed + the qty of your order. |

Thank you for your reply. I trade futures and I have the market depth data. I also get other values than 0, but I wonder if there is some sort of error when it returns 0. |
