Ninja not exiting all of positon

February 6th, 2012, 11:05 AM

Hi,

I have a strange issue in that sometimes when my strategy sends an exit order it will exit 99% of the position and leave say 1 or 2 stocks left...

Has anyone ever had an issue like this or know of any reason this could happen?

Thanks

Do you have this behavior with market orders, or with another order type ?

Hi,

yes market orders.

I never had this behavior. I already had multiple exchanges used for the same exit (with IB), but with a market order, that should not happen for you.
I think we'll need more details, like the name of your broker.

You should follow up with your broker to understand why a market order is not 100% filled.

The broker is IB
