I am running the current version of Sierra Chart. I have the Denali data feed and Im executing orders through interactive brokers.

Whenever I open a position the line that usually shows at the level of the entry does not appear. This happens on every instrument I trade. I have got ticks next to "chart trade mode" and "show orders and position". I have run other versions of Sierra Charts and never encountered this issue. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to resolve this issue.

Thanks

It sounds like what you are referring to is what is described in the following section:
Interactive Brokers Trading Service: Trade Position Line or Quantity Disappearing or Displaying Zero
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:

I am running same setup, latest SC, Denali and IB. Every once in awhile the initial order line disappears along with attached orders but the order line comes back in a few seconds without the original attached orders. I have TWS visible and always monitor my positions.

My point is it usually works properly. I trade futures.

The easiest thing to do would be to go back to earlier version and see if the problem persists.
