Update the version 970 to 971. It is possible the problem relates to Administrator level access.

i updated to 971 now i have 2 SC with both IQfeed and IB but: but one of the dll i downloaded isn't loading. when trying to recompile it i get an error: "Source file "DeltaDivergence.cpp" is missing the SCDLLName line. Refer to ACSIL documentation." can it be that i had the v5 (which i found on the support board) and sc added it to user contribution as v3? when finished that and tried to compile i got this: -- Starting build of Custom Studies Source File: DeltaDivergence_v5.cpp. -- 18:14:37 "C:\SierraChart\CPPCompiler\bin\g++.exe" "C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\DeltaDivergence_v5.cpp" -march=i686 -mtune=i686 -O2 -shared -static -static-libgcc -static-libstdc++ -s -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions -o "C:\SierraChart\Data\DeltaDivergence_v5.dll" In file included from c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/string:54:0, from C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\DeltaDivergence_v5.cpp:8: c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/bits/basic_string.h: In member function 'int std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::compare(const std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>&) const': c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/bits/basic_string.h:2226:31: error: expected unqualified-id before '(' token In file included from c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/string:55:0, from C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\DeltaDivergence_v5.cpp:8: c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/bits/basic_string.tcc: In member function 'std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::size_type std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::rfind(const _CharT, std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::size_type, std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::size_type) const': c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/bits/basic_string.tcc:786:17: error: expected unqualified-id before '(' token c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/bits/basic_string.tcc: In member function 'int std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::compare(std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::size_type, std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::size_type, const std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>&) const': c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/bits/basic_string.tcc:923:36: error: expected unqualified-id before '(' token c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/bits/basic_string.tcc: In member function 'int std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::compare(std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::size_type, std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::size_type, const std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>&, std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::size_type, std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::size_type) const': c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/bits/basic_string.tcc:940:36: error: expected unqualified-id before '(' token c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/bits/basic_string.tcc: In member function 'int std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::compare(const _CharT) const': c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/bits/basic_string.tcc:956:36: error: expected unqualified-id before '(' token c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/bits/basic_string.tcc: In member function 'int std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::compare(std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::size_type, std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::size_type, const _CharT) const': c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/bits/basic_string.tcc:972:36: error: expected unqualified-id before '(' token c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/bits/basic_string.tcc: In member function 'int std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::compare(std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::size_type, std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::size_type, const _CharT, std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::size_type) const': c:\sierrachart\cppcompiler\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.2/include/c++/bits/basic_string.tcc:988:36: error: expected unqualified-id before '(' token C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\DeltaDivergence_v5.cpp: In function 'int scdll_DLLVersion()': C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\DeltaDivergence_v5.cpp:10:1: error: redefinition of 'int scdll_DLLVersion()' C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\DeltaDivergence_v5.cpp:9:1: error: 'int scdll_DLLVersion()' previously defined here C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\DeltaDivergence_v5.cpp: In function 'const char* scdll_DLLName()': C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\DeltaDivergence_v5.cpp:10:1: error: redefinition of 'const char* scdll_DLLName()' C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\DeltaDivergence_v5.cpp:9:1: error: 'const char* scdll_DLLName()' previously defined here -- End of Build -- 18:14:39

Do you have Trade >> Trade Simulation Mode On disabled? Check the Trade >> Trade Service Log for any Error messages when you submit the order.

Is the status of the orders you are sending stuck in the Order Sent state? If so, please contact Interactive Brokers about this.

thanks for fixing the cpp regarding the orders execution: the status of the orders are pending open (and the child orders are pending as well due to the parent not filled) that's what you call "stuck"? i have no problem getting from IB the correct position for that account...

i spoke with IB api support in london after several tests they are sure i don't have any issues sending manual orders. after trying more thing i found that the problem is because i get @ES# from another SC (with IQfeed) and trying to send orders with that symbol to IB. when sending orders for the IB contract name ES-201306-GLOBEX there is no problem sending. so. how do i tell SC that @ES# = ES-201306-GLOBEX when executing orders?

You need to set the Alternate Real-time Update Symbol to ES-201306-GLOBEX .

How do you have the controls at the top of the Trade >> Trade Activity Log set? Did you select Replay/Backtest? It could be the automated trading system did not generate any trades at all. We do not provide help with automated trade system debugging. So we did not look at your source code. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
