For example from web account orders dashboard:
Using alpaca-py paper trading expected PARTIALLY_FILLED not CANCELED
@kniyotai The order status is the last status of the order. In the background, the field is overwritten each time the status changes. For example, it starts as accepted, then is updated to new, then perhaps partially_filled, then typically filled. It will always end with one of the following terminal statuses:
FILLED
CANCELLED
EXPIRED
REJECTED
REPLACED
DONE_FOR_DAY
SUSPENDED
CALCULATED
Since the order was Immediate Or Cancel (IOC) it partially filled but then was cancelled and therefore had a final state of CANCELLED.
Thank you dan, i am able to pool and follow the sequence of states but never got to that elusive partially_filled ,
So the only real indication for partial feel is the actual filled quantity followed by cancelled on IOCs, which is somewhat confusing but works…
I imagined the partially_filled would also be a worthy terminal state.
Thanks.
