We have looked the Trade Activity Log over and this is the relevant message: Order 2016-08-11 06:34:50.969 TSLA-OPT-20160812-227.5-P Synchronized Internal Position to current Service Position. Current Position quantity: 0 Unspecified U1644808
This is clearly a case where the TWS did not send the Trade Position update and Sierra Chart reset its Trade Position Quantity for the symbol back to 0 which was the last received Service Position Quantity for the symbol. You have to insist that Interactive Brokers resolves this for you. This has been an ongoing problem for years. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Communication w/ IB API team today, confused on what direction I should go from here. Siteng J: The log file shows the same behavior as we checked before Siteng J: Sierra chart invoked the function to request for account information before the connection has been fully established Siteng J: So there is a kind of competing session that no account data was returned eggnog999: When u say connection are you referring to full fill on order? Siteng J: No, when Sierra CHarts connects to TWS Siteng J: If you want to see this in the log, I can show you eggnog999: sure Siteng J: They just need to put in a wait of something so that only makes requests when the connection is fully established Siteng J: Open that file, search for "<- 6-2-1-U1644808" Siteng J: That is the request to get account information Siteng J: If you look at several lines below that, you should also see messages like "Market data farm connection is OK..." Siteng J: Those messages actually can be considered as a flag that shows the connection is successful Siteng J: Since the request came before those messages, no account data has been sent back through out the entire API connection session Siteng J: Here is a successful example: try to search for "<- 6-2-1-DU273679" Siteng J: This is the request to account data for your paper trading account Siteng J: You should see that request was sent after the messages "Market data farm connection is OK..." appeared in the log Siteng J: So account information and portfolio information was sent back by TWS immediately after the request was sent |

We will contact Interactive Brokers and beat them up on this. This is not an acceptable solution. It is unreliable and only leads to various consequences. Really this whole thing is unbelievable. They should not for a second even consider putting the responsibility for something this on the client side. The solution must be on the server side. They understand their own server and need to implement a solution. If we implemented the DTC server in Sierra Chart with such flaws, it would be unreliable and there will be kinds of problems. Now you can see why there are so many problems with TWS. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

Great, thanks for the effort. Just a note, it did work as needed today, although I lowered the overall allotment size of the trade, Ive noticed that typically this error will occur when using larger allotment sizes. Thanks again, look forward to hearing back. |

Therefore, it is questionable that the solution that Interactive Brokers has said would even help.

As we began to look into this, we made a small change on our side that may help. The Trade Position data updates will not be started when using Interactive Brokers until five seconds after the connection like they are with all of the other trading services. This will be out in the next release. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users. Try to keep your questions brief and to the point.

HI thanks for the update. I assume release 1454 is the update? Also, we have very fast trades, sometimes lasting as little as 4 seconds sometimes, will this new update affect this? |

Sierra Chart Engineering - Posts: 104368 |
Yes the change was made in version 1454. But we still think you can occasionally have the problem and Interactive Brokers will need to correct this because we are not doing anything further in this regard. Fast trades will not be affected by the change we made. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

Have updated to Version 1454. I'm disappointed this is still an issue as I have spent a year building an automated trading system and have been limited to only taking one trade and on top of that have to manually attach child orders. You have spoke before about speaking to IB about this, has this been done? What can I do from here?

With what version did this occur with? Did you update to the latest release because we did make a change that should have helped with this.

Updated to 1457. Your computer should be using a quad core CPU with 16 gigabytes of memory for the best performance
We are running a quad core CPU currently with 8 gigabytes of memory. I do notice the issue arises when we use larger contract sizes for trades. Do you recommend adding 8 GB of RAM to possibly improve performance when using larger allotment size for trades? Thx |

We do not see CPU capabilities or memory size as having any effect at all on this.

If you are still having a problem with Trade Position Updates not being received from Interactive Brokers, then Interactive Brokers needs to examine the log files when you have this problem in the newer versions of Sierra Chart and tell us what the issue is. We still maintain very clearly that the position of Interactive Brokers is wrong and they need to solve this problem on their side. For them to claim the issue is something that we need to solve is complete and total insanity. We will say this publicly. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

No issues, just curious if more ongoing conversations have been had. We do not see CPU capabilities or memory size as having any effect at all on this. We did have many more issues when running a computer with less overall processing speed. Transaction time on trades almost tripled and API issue seemed to happen much more frequent. This was noticed as our main computer was in the shop being worked on and during that time used a less capable computer. This computer has been fixed and no issues came about this entire week, we will also be adding in more ram to possibly help with transaction time. On a separate note, , we have very quick trades and time-to-market is imperative, what is the timeframe of receiving an alert via spreadsheet when SC.Submit order then populates in the trade activity log. Are there any functions in SC that would allow processing of trades to occur at a faster rate? Or better question what can we do to ensure we have the fastest transaction time moving forward? Thanks again |

When you have this problem with not receiving Trade Position updates you need to ask Interactive Brokers about this. For the best performance do not use Spreadsheets and use ACSIL completely. You can also decrease the Chart Update Interval: General Settings Window: Chart Update Interval (Global Settings >> General Settings >> General >> Update Intervals) Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
