Post From: Super slow Order "Filled" updates from TDAmeritrade to SC?

I am using SC Data feed with TDA as my trade service. I am exclusively trading NYSE and Nasdaq listed stocks. The automated spreadsheet I am using works perfectly fine in trade simulation mode. However when I use it to send orders to TDA my trade service activity log shows that it has been taking five minutes to six hours for the trade to get reported to SC server as filled? The log shows it takes only one second for TDA to report the sale as received and open, and in checking my TDA account the trades are executed and filled within one or two seconds, but my automated spreadsheet is being held up due to working orders that in actuality have been filled? A manual Trade>>Refresh Trade Data from Service doesn’t suit my needs as my trading model required full automation. I have also tried using Trade >> Open Trade Window for Chart >> Menu/M >> Use Order Fill Calculated Position as a workaround to no avail. The first Buy trade that occurred to open a position with my spreadsheet for trading was executed at TDAmeritrade but it did not show up in the Trade >> Trade Activity Log- Trade Activity tab (and therefore trade position in Cell J8 remained zero) for six hours until I manually refreshed using Trade>>Refresh Trade Data from Service. Any thoughts on how to improve the TDA Order update time, or get the Use Order Fill Calculated Position working so I can rely upon order fill data from within SC and not upon Trade Position data from the external Trading service? |
