Dear SC, I have a problem with orders. A few seconds after the order is fullfilled, the order disappears. If I check the trade, my IB platforma the open trade registers. So, I must close the trade there .. Please, advice ..

Sounds like you are referring to the Position. Do you see the Position listed in the Trade >> Trade Orders and Positions >> Positions tab? If so, what is the exact symbol that you see for that Position on that tab? Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

What this means is that Trader Workstation is not providing the Trade Position data for that symbol if you do not see it listed in the Trade >> Trade Orders and Positions >> Positions tab. What we want you to do is to restart Sierra Chart. Connect to Trader Workstation.

So what you then need to do is contact Interactive Brokers at the following email address: api@interactivebrokers.com Let them know when Account Updates are subscribed to for that particular account that their system (TWS) is not responding.

The messages that say "Outside Regular Trading Hours" indicate that the orders were flagged to be immediately processed and that is what happened according to the message.

IB wrote, that "Our records show that you were submitting a parent order with two children attached to it. Aftre the parrent order was filled, the children became active as it usually happens but a cancelation was requested for one of them. This caused the other child order´s cancelation as part of theOCA mechanism". This is the truth. The point is that I cancelled the child because my parent order disapeared on Sierra platform (I was extremely nervous, on Sierra I saw two children orders and the trade disapeared. SO, I planned to decrease the problem.) Please, advice ..

Also we have documented the meaning of that particular message which says "Outside Regular Trading Hours" here: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/IB.php#TradingErrorMessages It is kind of confusing because it looks like it can mean the opposite of what it actually does and apparently even Interactive Brokers got confused by its meaning. Not good. In response to your post #12, see our response at post #11. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

OK good so you just need to update Trader Workstation to 950.2G and the problem will be resolved. Let us know if that helps. Those OCO orders got canceled when you pressed the Flatten button to flatten the position. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

Please note I could not use the flatten, because Sierra did not monitored the order. Order disapeared, I saw child orders only. Than I canceled child order (my mistake, stress, etc.)on Sierra platform. The order was monitored on IB platforma only. Then, I closed the trade after a several attempts. So, my TWS is updated, but the problem with trading hours is still there. Please, advice ..

Remove all Chartbook files from Global Settings >> General Settings >> Files to Open on Start up. After this, restart Sierra Chart and connect to TWS. Wait 30 seconds and then provide a copy of the Message Log by following these instructions: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=PostingInformation.php#log Once again make sure there are no charts open.
