Default Urgent: Order submission issue: LONG CL 03-11 vs. SHORT CL 04-11

Hello,
I am a live license key holder (using version 6.5.1000.19), connected to Interactive Brokers (using version 911).

I justed placed 2 orders, each as market order from charting window.

First order: BUY 1 Contract CL 03-11 (IB Symbol: CLH1)
Second order: SELL 1 Contract CL 04-11 (IB Symbol: CLJ1)

The problem is:
In the charts now I see my BUY order in CL 02-11, the sell order is shown in CL 03-11!
I placed the orders definitily as described above.

In IBs Trader Workstation both orders appear in the correct symbol: 1 Contract long in CLH1, 1 contract short in CLJ1.

In Ninja trader > Control center > Orders
also both orders are shown in the correct way.

Please view the attached screenshots.

If I want to cancel both orders at the same time (probably this evening or tomorrow), how should I proceed safely?

Can I use IB Workstation with the command "Close all oders"? What happens to the Ninja Trader engine? Will both trades be marked as closed in that way?

I do not want to use Ninja traders action "Control Center > File > Flatten everything", because I do not trust because of the open positions in the charts.

Please help,
best regards,
Andreas from Germany.

Hello Andreas,

Sorry to hear of this.

The underlying issue you are experiencing is a related to an error in the IB API we use to connect NinjaTrader. We have notified IB of the problem, they have acknowledged it, and now we are waiting on a resolution from them.

In anticipation that it may take IB a while to resolve this problem we have put in to place a workaround to it in NinjaTrader 7. By all reports, this workaround is effective. That said, the same workaround could not be put in to place in NinjaTrader 6.5.

Moving forward, I would suggest that you upgrade to NinjaTrader 7 where this would no longer be an issue. NinjaTrader 7 is avialable for download via the following link: http://www.ninjatrader.com/webnew/download_download.htm

Hello,

thank you for your suggestion. Of course I will update to NT7 as soon as possible.

But please give me any advice how to close my 2 open positions safely.

I repeat my question:

Can I use IB Workstation with the command "Close all oders"?
What happens to the Ninja Trader engine? Will both trades be marked as closed in that way?

I do not want to use Ninja traders action "Control Center > File > Flatten everything", because I do not trust because of the open positions in the charts.

Hello Andreas,

I'd suggest managing these positions directly from TWS.
