I am trading a sim account and routing orders to Collective2.
I was wondering why nothing was going through to C2 for a number of hours despite signals being generated and Hypothetical trades being displayed in NT.
The only way to analyse what happened AFTER the event was to look at the logs.
I noted one message saying 'Order Server Disconnect'. But the Control Panel had everything appearing to run as normal.
The last-resort fix was to shut down and restart NT. It resumed working afterwards.
This is an obviously totally unacceptable solution as there is no way of knowing if NT is working or not.
Interactive Brokers has a red/green indicator that gives you the status of the Market Data Server as well as the Orders Server, Collective2 doesn't.
This Order Server appears to be on the NT side so I was hoping there was a way of checking the status of it during auto-trading.
Could you please advise,
Regards
