Thank you for the response. Could you please clarify whether this (ie, not needing a position if Send Attached Order by Price) is true regardless of order entry method? I have different results based on how I enter the order. 1) After choosing Attached Orders-Price in the Trading DOM, I then select a reference price with the drop down and finally hit buy / sell. This generates the expected order and it is accepted by SC. 2) If I right click to the left of the price ladder on the Trading DOM and select Send Attached Orders By Price, I receive the following message in the Trade Service Log, "Trading error: A position must exist to determine Buy/Sell. Attached Orders not sent." The error message seems logical because when I make a selection from the context menu that appears with a right mouse click, SC only knows my reference price and my offsets but not my buy/sell direction. Therefore, I seem to be missing the step of how to specify buy/sell when using this second order entry method of clicking to the left of the price ladder. I appreciate your patience in going through this with me. Many thanks in advance.
