Hello team,
I am using the Simulated Trading Service (not the internal trading simulation) and my Time in Force Day orders are being cancelled at 16:15 for some reason. The end time in Global Settings > Symbol Settings is set to 16:59:59. The trading log shows:
Order is expired based on time in force followed by Simulated Order Cancelled

I can not find anywhere else where I would have configured them to cancel at 16:15 EST.
Any assistance is appreciated,

Thanks!

This is controlled on the server side and cannot be changed. That does seem like the correct time based on the session times.
