What does 2102 (order still being processed) mean on the Interactive Brokers API?
Interactive Brokers lists TWS API warning message code 2102 with the text "Unable to modify this order as it is still being processed." (the vendor's wording). An order modification was sent before the order had been processed by the system, so the modification is rejected.
Risk warning: CFDs and spread bets are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. You can lose money on these products, and each provider publishes its own loss figure under FCA rules. You should consider whether you understand how they work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money. Automated and API trading can amplify losses through bugs, connectivity failures and runaway orders.
How do I fix 2102 (order still being processed)?
Wait until the order has been fully processed before modifying it.
