Hello,

- When I trade in simulation mode the flatten button on the DOM does what it supposed to do. It flattens the orders and cancels related OCO orders.
- When I trade my Interactive Brokers account (live), the flatten button cancels all orders on the DOM and in Interactive Brokers. However, the positions remains open. So, the flatten button works as a "cancel all" rather than flatten.

I am unable to find the configuration for the behavior of the flatten button.

Regards,

Ayal
