exixting orders not showing up in chart

Postby KhaosTrader » 06 Sep 2012

I bought 1k shares of a stock through IB using their TradersWorkstation (TWS) and then I opened up MC and made a chart with the same symbol (i even take the datafeed from Interactive Brokers) yet I dont see the stock on the chart trader on MC.. why is that?

KhaosTrader, make sure your symbol mapping is correct, chart trading panel is open and "show open position" is enabled in Format->Chart trading.
