Diagnosing Orders Stuck in Submission on VeighNa and CTP
Summary
This forum thread discusses futures orders that remain in a submission state when placed through VeighNa, including manual orders and occasional reports from live trading. One suggestion is to check that the contract symbol uses the correct capitalization, but the original poster says this did not resolve the issue. Participants also distinguish between CTP test environments: SIMNOW is suggested for simulated trading, while CTPTEST is described as intended for penetration testing rather than ordinary simulation.
Replies suggest that a persistent stuck state may reflect an underlying interface error and recommend inspecting lower-level error output. Restarting the software is reported as a practical workaround by several participants, including one who says the problem has occasionally occurred in live trading. The thread does not identify a confirmed root cause or establish that restarting is a reliable fix. It offers troubleshooting pointers and environment-selection advice, rather than a systematic diagnosis or verified solution.
Key ideas
- A contract symbol's capitalization may be worth checking, though it did not solve the reported case.
- SIMNOW is recommended in the discussion for simulated trading, while CTPTEST is characterized as a penetration-testing environment.
- Inspecting lower-level error messages may help identify why an order remains pending.
- Restarting VeighNa is reported as a workaround, but the thread does not confirm the underlying cause.
