Confirm a fill

When an order Tented sent fills completely, a Fill detected card pops up with the time, each leg (BUY or SELL, quantity, contract, price) and a Target list. It stays until you act on it. Tented never writes a fill to the journal until you confirm.

Note

The card appears when the whole order fills; partial fills raise none. Orders placed in TWS itself or by another application raise no card either; they arrive through Missed executions.

1. Check Target. For a Send from a trade page, the trade the order was sent for is preselected. Otherwise (a Save & send included) Tented preselects the open trade in that account that most recently opened and holds any of the filled contracts, or a draft with matching legs, or Create new trade. The list holds open trades and drafts only.
2. Click Update trade (open trade), Record fill on draft (draft), or Create new trade. The last opens the import wizard in the Journal so you can name it or merge it into an existing trade.

Dismiss (or the ×) closes the card without recording, and those executions are not offered again at the next connect; you can still fetch them in the import wizard.

If the order came from Save & send, the entry already exists at the prices you saw, and confirming on that trade corrects it with IB’s prices and commissions. An order from Send has no entry; confirming adds one.

Close the app with a card unanswered and the card is gone, but the fills return at the next connect as an offer to import. While Tented is not the focused window, an operating-system notification says what filled, and clicking it opens the trade; Settings → General turns that off (Notifications).

If a fill did not change the trade or no card showed, see No Fill detected card.
