My pc crashed while I had an open position - and no liveposition.xml file was created. How can I get RE to take over the position again and pick up
the correct order id etc from TWS.

There isn't another way at this time for us to sync against a broker.

Do you mean the order IDs for the profit target/stop loss orders?

You can build your own copy of the TWS plugin (from the source that we provide). When the broker plugin connects to TWS, it requests all open orderds from TWS (client.RequestOpenOrders()). These orders will be processed by the client_OrderStatus method. This method only does something with the order if it is in the openOrders dictionary. The orders which you submitted but aren't in the LiveOpenPositions.xml file won't be in that dictionary. So you can modify the plugin to record the order IDs of the orders that aren't, or just put a breakpoint in your plugin code that fires when the orders that aren't in that dictionary and get them in the debugger.

Thanks,
Daniel
