Hi,

I am facing problem closing a position partially. The process I am following for this is:

Open buy position quantity = 10000

Order request:

8=FIX.4.4
9=141
35=D
34=3
49=xxxxx
52=20180905-13:01:51.985
56=cServer
57=TRADE
11=1|0_MOR_3_118246406
38=10000
40=1
54=1
55=1
60=20180905-13:01:51
10=188

Response:

8=FIX.4.4

35=8
34=4
49=cServer
50=TRADE
52=20180905-13:01:51.236
56=xxxxxxx
6=1.15852
11=1|0_MOR_3_118246406
14=10000
37=142560542
38=10000

40=1
54=1
55=1
59=3
60=20180905-13:01:52.289
150=F
151=0
721=87737108
10=172

After this the CTrader terminal shows the position with volume as 10000

To close this position I am placing sell order with same position Id but quantity as 5000.

Close Request:

8=FIX.4.4

150=F
151=0
721=87737108
10=155

As it is visible from the message that, the close order is getting filled. But when I see in the CTrader terminal, I still see the volume as 10000 instead of expected 5000.

 

I am quite clueless currently as how to resolve this issue.

Can anybody help me in this?

The problem is resolved. It was my code that was causing the problem. I was sending another stop order just after closing the position but with wrong side.

So this thread should be considered as closed.
