order execution
Explanation:
Please check the original text - thing is, a *position* is the result of an *order* execution. IOW you cannot execute a position.

This error is frequent whenever someone refers to a function where several orders can be executed simultaneously - still, you execute orders, or "baskets" of orders, but *never* a position.

Contact me directly if you need more backup on the concepts involved here.
