Incorrect order execution

Postby ADG88 » 26 Oct 2013

Hello,

I'm trying to automate a trading strategy, but I can't understand why the first order of the day is not filled, but rejected (TIF error), and then executed when the signal reoccurs; I think the symbol mapping is ok due tu the execution but why the delay?
Thanks a lot.

Who is your broker?
What is the RTH?
Please make sure your broker-side order setting is correct. ie. accept orders after hours.

What you are showing is the setting in MultiCharts.
You need to go to TWS to check the broker-side setting.
