Post From: Trade filled by IB even though it was cancelled

I attach the audit trail from IB showing that the API did respond with an acknowledgement.Meaning the issue is closed with them.
And I went over this with IB and they refer to their order trail that shows the order was placed and acknowledged.
According to the API team in a situation like this then you could query the status of the order with one of their call backs in which case it would show as active as a result of this call.

But IB are willing to review this with you - in the interest of building a reliable solution. Angel a programmer is willing to discuss this with you.

Bottom line I do not see any fault with IB - its all up to how Sierra deals with the situation of an order sent when somehow the Acknowledgement was lost. In your case you wait a period of time and then deem it cancelled. maybe its better you use their APIs to check if the order actually exists or put up a warning message for the user to check in the broker system.
