"State" status Clarification (9.0 Pre Release)

Postby StefanoSF » 16 Sep 2014

Referencing: "Order and Position Tracker" window. (Broker is IB)

"Saved" is being displayed under "State" for orders that are either Filled/Cancelled. Shouldn't it say Filled or Cancelled? Also there is no explanation for "Saved" here: https://www.multicharts.com/trading-sof ... on_Tracker

"Rejected" is displayed under "State" for manually Cancelled orders. Shouldn't it say "Cancelled"? Rejected infers the order was never accepted.

Hello StefanoSF,

if there are active orders at broker when you disconnect the broker profile – the active orders become “Saved”. This is the final order status. This line will not be changed after reconnect. Next time the broker profile is connected - MultiCharts requests active order info from broker and shows the active orders. If the order is filled then additional line with "Filled" state will be added.

When the order is manually cancelled but shown as "Rejected" - is there any error message in File -> New -> Order and position tracker window-> Logs tab? Does it happen with each cancelled order for each instrument?
