Post From: What is the actual order that is transmitted to IB if I press the Flatten or Reverse button on T

Hello,

Thank you for your answer.

Unfortunately this means that, upon hitting the flatten button SC would act upon the information it has stored in its incorrect files regarding positions open and thus the Flatten and Reverse buttons are dangerous or useless.

Perhaps your work with the DTC Protocol will improve this situation and I don't want to make demands on your time for this issue, but I wonder if others have experienced it as well. See my other post "Discrepancy between....".

This problem may only happen when using Advisor account and Use Order Fill Calculated Position and thus may not be of interest to most traders. But why can't SC simply quiery IB and get the positions that are open instead of relying on its flawed data?

I have so many times updated trade positions, cleared the trading log etc. but to no avail: some phoney positions remain somewhere in memory and I still don't know how to get rid of them.

This seems an important functionality issue. Please advise.
