To be able to apply ExecInst on a per order basis, I have been placing orders on BitMEX using their API. See ReduceOnly setting for BitMEx - possible on a per order basis in current version?

I want to use Sierra to then visualise, manipulate, supplement those orders.

But they do not appear in Sierra.

Is there a way to make them appear?

Perhaps a Sierra setting?
Have searched unsuccessfully.

Perhaps something I can programmatically add to the clOrdID, imagining that this is how Sierra filters to display only Sierra placed orders?

First thing to check is do you see the orders listed in Trade >> Trade Orders Window? If not, then you need to ask BitMex why you are not receiving them.

I've been doing the same for quite some time and those external orders do appear in SC. There is no filter for non-SC orders.

Have gone back and checked the Trade Orders Window.

Yes - trades visible there.

Then rechecked in the DOM - visible.

Not sure what the issue was before. Testnet by accident would be a good explanation but I checked that multiple times.

Nevermind - a mystery, so long as I can see them now.

Thank you all.
