I've had an incessant issue with this persistent error across multiple symbols/instruments. At first I thought it might be due to errors with how the data feed was being handled for instruments. It wasn't that.
I then thought it might be due to API handling between my trading broker's 3rd party interface software, and Ninja Trader. It wasn't that.
I conceeded that well over a dozen symbols I simply could not place orders on no matter how big or small due to this persistent error message that I was receiving.
I am NOW getting the error message with symbols that previously were fine when I entered an order, both on or off marketin hours. Their orders are being rejected.
I have contacted Ninjat Trader's support team and they mentioned it was due to API handling of my broker's platform. My broker says that there's nothing wrong and they don't know what the error is from. I get no where with technical support because apparently no one knows what this code means, nor will provide direction to find out what part of the system (i.e. trading platform or 3rd parting API/order handler) is producing it to help me in isolating where it's coming from.
I thought it might be due to conflicts in versions of Ninja Trader and API handling, so I updated software as well as Windows. All of this hasn't resolved this issue and now I am seeing it on symbols that once I had no problem in placing orders.
Has anyone on here experienced or seen this specific error? If so, what is the resolution that you've found, and what might I possibly be missing?
Thanks in advance for any insight or solutions that you've found resolves this error.
