Question:
Just after the system went down, I was long and I wanted out so I sent a limit sell order. But since the system went down, NYMEX never acknowledged it. I canceled the order, and per IB they say that since NYMEX never acknowledged the receipt of the order they didn't acknowledge the cancel either. So now I have a 'stuck' order on my IB pending orders page with an orange color filled cell in the order status column. IB rep says it will go away next time they (NYMEX) reset their system. I'm out of the position. Anyone have this problem.
