"Invalid execution data from patssystems"

[QuahTrader]

I just installed .35 today, and recently recieved the popup message says that I had received "potentially invalid execution data from patssystems" - however, I was only running NT on the SIM-101 account connected to a pats server.

Why would I be getting any execution data from patssystems at all - invalid or valid?

It's a call that comes back from Pats that provides fill information. There is a bug in it. They can't find it to fix it. It passes bogus data to NT. When it happens, NT needs to report it otherwise it could report bad information. Please let me know if this happens consistently.

Ray - this happened to me once yesterday and three times today. I also know of another user it happened to both days.

Thanks,

Well, it didn't happen for a while - then today it happened 3 times in a 10 minute period.

Probably about the same time it happened to me. Interesting.

Just to shed some light on this ...

It happened to my account as well. The problem here is that programatically NinjaTrader is alerted to execution information from the Patsystems servers. Once we are notified, we must then ask the Patsystems servers for information on this execution. The problem here is that when we request information, it returns back an error code. Since execution information is used to build position information it is of course critical. Patsystems is working with us to understand why they are sending us error information. Actually, the problem is they are sending us execution alerts when we have not even traded in the account all day. We hope to have some resolution on this shortly.

Thanks for your patience.

Exactly - I'm getting them even though I'm trading via SIM-101.

Anyone using Patsystems should for sure.
