Post From: Order positions not in sync with interactive brokers

That is strange. Usually when you open/close positions in a platform while connected to an IB account, the positions will open/close in the platform first and then show up in IB. From what I have seen from trading through platforms with IB, usually IB will show any positions opened/closed from the platform but the platform will not show positions opened in IB so in other words, if you go to IB and trade directly on TWS, those positions will not show on Sierra Charts. This is probably not unique to Sierra Charts.

But for the problems of positions being opened but not show up in Sierra Charts and then closed but pop up again, that is strange. I don't know whether that's a server latency issue or the server was just too busy in recognizing the status of positions. Maybe you can provide some trade logs, that might help.

Good luck.
