Hi ShaggsTheStud, Thanks for clearing that up.
If that is true, then the web interface will not be giving us the same picture as TWS when we trade multiple strategies on one instrument. Will making SBT and TWS show the same positions be a feature upgrade in the near future? Is there an area where we can request feature upgrade? it would be great if we could close and stop each strategy from the web interface I also notice that the P/L statement from TWS and SBT are different even with one position open, welcome any comments here. Despite my comments above, I am still very impressed with the current version's usability and stability - deeply grateful to Eugene and the other contributors for sharing the code.
