Wrong orders/positions on disconnect/connect

[claxxical]

This happens to me very frequently, in both NT7 and 6.5, in simulator and it actually happened once live. I'll be flat and disconnect. Upon reconnecting, I'll have these rogue positions that I never entered, and they'll be anywhere from 5 to even 40 ticks off the current price, in the red. My P/L will also be thousands of dollars off. When I disconnect and repair the database, the positions are still there. What is causing this? This even happened to me live, good thing I only lost 2 ticks!!!

Hello claxxical,

Thank you for your post.

1.) Which data provider are you using with NinjaTrader?

2.) Are these positions which are left on over-night?

I'm using Zen-fire, and these are not left on over-night.
