Gorak,

I don't know why they moved orders7 off MCI. Why not just use orders16??

If you are using Super Express that was writen for orders7 access, you can edit the HTML in notepad and change the URL(in several places) for orders16 access.

Also, I am using the IP addresses in Super Express that Lee posted on this thread earlier. This may be giving me faster server access than using the orders16 URL and going thru DNS lookup.

Is anyone an expert that can tell if using IP addresses is significantly faster than DNS addresses? All day today my trades were accepted and started processing in a couple seconds or so. I was surprised to hear of delays.

One intermittent bug I have noticed and keep forgetting about is that CANCEL goes to TRYING TO CANCEL and then sometimes STOPS trying and puts the order back to market where it has to be CANCELED a 2nd time. Double check your cancels for confirmation if you don't already.

Steve
