After all every exchange is potentially different to any other - that's just how it is.
For example [these work fine on the SIM btw]:
On the FTSe [liffe] you need to use orders with a TIF of day and not Gtc or the order will be rejected.
On the SFE you cannot submit vanilla market orders, if you do they are rejected..
I had an order overfill problem with my live account the other day which cost me money. This has never occurred on my SIM account despite extensive testing. So I've now reverted to a vanilla managed order approach - will this work - I don't know, but I would rather find out out before putting real money on the line.
My question really is - if something works on the SIM how can I guarantee the operation will be faithfully replicated when I run live ?
Also, is there a list of exchange constraints / limitation anywhere ?
Thanks for any response.
