Dear SC Support, I was trading intraday futures via SC with IB without problem but now I am facing the problem with closing the opened contract. I am able to enter order (buy/sell) without problem but when I enter opposite order I got in SC "S/Mkt/ORDER SENT/" without any effect - contract remains opened. Even attached orders (stop/profit target) do not work.I am forced to close the contract directly from IB TWS. I have last SC version 996 and no settings were changed. Please advise where can be problem. Brgds Premysl |
