    Hi,

    Do you know the code in order to resolve the reject message “position does not exist” ?

    You may find an orphan trade (abandoned by a System! 🙁 ) if you use the IG Platform and click on ‘Positions’ in the left hand margin?

    If on Demo …  did you check IG Demo Platform?

    If on Real … did you check IG Real PLatform?

    Dear Grahal and Makside.

    I have the same issue in demo and can not figure why.

    This happens testing a code of the type below with DEFPARAM CumulateOrders = true and DEFPARAM preloadbars = 5000

    Do you think this error is linked to the code ? or to its linked to the demo account ?

    Thank you.

    Is it a one off occurrence?

    If Yes, then just carry on … life is too short … esp as it is in Demo?

    I get it from time to time and I just ignore / work around it.

    Hi Grahal,

    No, it works for some time and then it keeps on stoping !

    I think it happens when the system is doing the reverse, maybe it does not like to have X position cumulated on one side and an order to reverse for one position on the other side.

    Maybe I should set the SL to be at LowRange.

    It would be worth setting a duplicate Algo going with CumulateOrders = False and see if ‘False’ does not get the error message?

    Let us know how you get on please?

    I can’t see how the SL value will do it, but who knows?  Try a duplicate Algo with a different SL value, I’d suggest much larger SL value … just as an experiment?

    For info / comparison … I had Rejections for this error overnight / 5 Nov 20.

    HI Grahal,

    Yes I will try this (defparam=false).

    I tried on other time frame and the robot still to stop for different kind of reasons (“order already exist”, “position does not exist”, “order is to close from current market price. Minimum distance for this market is 300 points”.

    I will post the conclusion here.

    Thank you again !

    I had more Rejections overnight against reason … ‘Position Does not Exist‘.

    I reckon it is down to which reason the spinning wheel falls on as to what reason we get Rejected!? 🙂
