The other thing I noticed is that the Executions tab does not have the original buy order listed, but the chart has the green pointer to the buy price. Also, the buy price is still being tracked on the chart as though the order still exists. In summary, the original order does not show up in Executions yet the sell does, but original order also shows up in Positions and on the chart!

IB trading
I have some serious problems with the NT7 to IB interaction. I placed a trade in NT7 for an IB account and it worked fine, and in the positions tab it tracked the profit. Today I decided to take a profit on the position so I went to the chart trader and set a limit sell. The sell limit was hit and the position sold. I went back to the positions tab and it still had the position there as though it had not sold. So I looked at the Executions tab and it has the sell listed there! Then I went over to TWS and checked the log and it had sold over there on the IB side. I went back to the positions tab in NT7 and tried to close the position again, just to see what it would do. I was correctly rejected by IB telling NT that the account was not authorized to go short.

Kyle,
What I am asking is if I can trade with more confidence using NT 6.5 if I want to use a MBTrading account and not have the issues NT 7 appears to have with regards the positions reporting
Thanks,
Jon

I can answer that question, but first must be able to understand why the difficulties arise within version 7.
I am asking if the same issue is apparent in NT6.5 and I just cant locate threads to verify that.

I cant find info on the issue in NT6.5 <> MBTrading API with position reporting issues ... can you?

Trader.Jon,
No - I cannot, but I cannot say based on this alone that you'd not see an issue in 6.5 since we don't really have a full understanding of the issue in versions 7. I understand what you believe the issue to be, but no one has confirmed the specifics so it's impossible to tell you whether 6.5 would function without issue for you.KyleNinjaTrader Customer Service

My strategies would get out of sync with NT 6.5 when I was using it about 1.5 years ago with MBT. It was the reason I switched to NT7. It was a letdown when it became apparant that the problem was not going to be fixed.
To use NT7 with MBT:
1. Do not use the managed approach.
2. Do not use any of the set methods (like SetStopLoss).
3. Ignore the position data on Strategy tab.
