This is supposed to be the warning that does the job. It doesn’t specify the exact auction times because even if there’s a scheduled action, there’s no guarantee that your order will get filled.

As for the cancellation of a placed order, we’re looking into how we can improve that. It’s an issue with the communication between the LSE & IB.

> @revelcsi1iicidem This doesn’t depend on us, we can’t make an order modifiable that hasn’t even been acknowledged by the exchanges yet. We route the order to IB. IB route it to LSE (example). Until LSE acknowledges the order “:+1:” we don’t get a confirmation response from IB because they don’t get one from LSE.
