Hello, there is some new behavior since one of the last updates that could not be right. When I move an order on the chart, as long as I move it around the order quantity read out is ok. As soon as placing the order back on the chart for one cycle you switch the order quantity to zero. This leads to permanent alerts here as I check the order quantity against the position data. And this was not like this before. I have a screenshot attached where you see a permanent log of the quantities while the order is 'up' and moving, and then when placing it it goes to zero for one run through and then back to normal value. Can this please be fixed shortly as this leads to permanent alerts here Thanks |

Hello, is there some news to this? This was definitely introduced in one of the last versions according to my testing logs. As this is in the millisecond range you would not even notice it without the debug messages. But it is enough to trigger a false alert now (of course when checking the order quantity which is zero in this case where it never wasn't) Thanks |

No there is no news here. There is definitely no bug and we are not going to spend time on this. There is nothing wrong. Check your code. This is where the problem is . It is in your code. We cannot spend time just because someone claims there is a bug. There simply is not. It is not even possible. It can also be a problem with Interactive Brokers TWS.

I am sorry on that you were offended a bit. It is definitely not the code, I removed all studies and so all code logic, and applied just a logging of the order id every cycle. You can see it is only on one cycle, exactly when putting the order back down. Cannot reproduce it in Sim, so it has to be a change in the IB API, which seems likely because there are other problems since, it seems, the same time I mentioned here.

The strange thing is the order is open all the time, which it should be of course, otherwise it would not log it. And it seems when sending it to IB the moment placing it down it has a quantity of zero for a very very short time. And if IB delivers that zero or it is set to zero while waiting for an acknowledge or whatever from IB I cannot see of course. I can only prove that it is like that and it was no offense

I think the code is simply too quick sometimes for the IB server and response, I will try to address that with more detailed checking of OrderStatus. Am programming several projects at a time, sorry for the hassle on that. Thanks Date Time Of Last Edit: 2020-09-25 10:15:26

We could filter out an order quantity of zero from TWS assuming an order quantity of zero means it is just not given.

I made some amendments regarding PENDINGMODIFY and see if that fixes it. I only test in production anymore for IB because with paper is even more hassle. I think it will work out, if not I will give a message here. Many thanks |

You should also change the subject of this thread. There is no bug here and never was.
