Summary of Changes:
Nota Bene: We are is a mode where express intervention, to
make sure inadvertent testing against a funded, non-paper
account does NOT occur. The added functionality is on the
path of Order Management
The order regression script provides a vehicle for testing
orders; it enters a pair of buy and sell orders at market.
Order status updates, order modification, and order
cancellation do NOT work.
If permitted to run against live money it is certain that
commissions would be experienced, and of course there is NO
belief in the appropriateness of such a 'churning' strategy.
We repeat: THIS CODE IS FOR TESTING ONLY. USE ONLY WITH THE
DEMO OR PAPER ACCOUNTS. DO NOT RUN THIS VERSION AGAINST A
REAL ACCOUNT. You have been warned.
This is of course good news, despite the cautionary matter
above, as we are proceeding with the 'unblocking' and
restoration of Order Management functionality. Recall that we
had initially prevented our prior order code from being
present and active in prior external releases, as we were
dissatisfied with its robustness.
We continue on on the 'implementation' road to restoring that
function. This release close on the heels of last week's
release is indicative of progress in that regard.
Thank you for your interest; we welcome feedback and comment.
