We added this to the documentation:
The estimated position in queue is supported for orders entered in both Trade Simulation Mode and not when in Trade Simulation Mode.

If there is no Bid or Ask size/quantity data at the particular price level when the order is entered, the estimated position will just be the order quantity itself. This will be the case when there is no market depth data available or when you are entering an order at other than the best Bid or Ask price.

It does not matter if you are using the data feed in another instance. The only explanation for the problem would be the above. Check to see that you have market depth data for the price level of the order:
