-1 return value of ibgCREATE_POSITION_SNAPSHOT in IB dem/live account
Posted: Wed Jan 13, 2021 10:18 am
Hello,
I am trying to test the position management module of my EA.
My code looks like this (which is basically the same as the demo in the donwload package):
The output looks like this:
You can tell I have a sell position of -100000, but the return of ibgCREATE_POSITION_SNAPSHOT(__conid); is -1
I did a test, the error code after the ibgCREATE_POSITION_SNAPSHOT(__conid) is 5039 or 5040:
5039: Amount of parameters more than the format specifiers
5040: Damaged parameter of string type
is there anything wrong with the plugin here? any update on either ibPlugin side or IB side I need to perform?
The version of my IB is: Build 981, Jan 11, 2021
The last modified date of my ibplugin.dll is: 30 Dec, 2020
