We did some extensive testing using CQG FIX and verifying the position quantities are properly processed from the FIX server in Sierra Chart and order fills are properly handled resulting in a correct position quantity. There were no problems. It is quite clear what has gone wrong here.

You flattened the position at 2018-03-13 15:20:00.034. Immediately after that because there was a reconnection or an express connection on your part to the CQG server, the current positions were requested from CQG. CQG indicated the position was 1 when in reality it was actually 0. You then flattened that nonexistent position subsequently, creating a short position. So the CQG server indicated an incorrect position quantity. It has always been very clear to us, that the way CQG does positions, makes a problem like this more likely. CQG needs to take responsibility for this. At this point this is considered finalized on our side and there is nothing further we can do.
