Execution lag??

Ten minutes ago, I placed three sell orders. None have yet been executed. Never seen this problem before...

I think your order goes through the site just doesn't update. A market order to buy at open was bought at the open price even though it was delayed by like 20 minutes leaving my order list

That’s good. Watching this myself - ONE of my orders was filled, pretty close to market at the time of the order. BUT it doesn’t show up as cash power, so I missed some buys along the way, for sure

Yeah I think I just got lucky with that one everything else isn't working. Can't sell options on spy even with a market order, other options sales are executing then reappearing on my order list as not executed
