In the case of Orders and Positions, duplicate symbols( same but with additional symbol parameters) does not matter: In all cases the real orders are actually correct on TWS. I think I have a hunch what might be causing some of these spurious order fill / disappearing orders issues with IB - or atleast one thing possibly contributing to it. If one has multiple symbols for the same instrument it's possible for SC/IB to have a mismatch on what's going where.
For instance: GOIL-######-IPE GOIL-######-IPE-USD-100 D-######-ICEEUSOFT D-######-ICEEUSOFT-USD-10 C-######-ICEEUSOFT-GBP C-######-ICEEUSOFT-GBP-10 For futures Positions only the first 3 or 5 parts are used and you can see that in Trade >> Trade Orders and Positions >> Positions. And for orders, it is only the Service Order ID which is used for matching. Not the symbol so long as the order is in the order list in Sierra Chart and it should be. If you do not see the Position there, it was never provided by TWS. The problem the user encountered most likely was due to changes to solve the problem with 2016 contracts and due to an issue which arose from those changes which was later fixed.
