Teton trailing stop exceeding AMP's 10 messages/10 sec limit

I am using Sierra Chart with Teton through my broker AMP Futures. When using a Sierra Chart trailing stop on MNQ, I receive:

Teton message rate limit reached

AMP has confirmed that their Teton Message Limit Per Ten Seconds is set to 10. The rejected trailing-stop modifications eventually cause Sierra Chart to reach its maximum failed-modification count, after which my protective stop stops trailing.

When I asked them to increase my limit, they responded with:

We are not having any other reported issues by our Teton customers
 
Please contact Sierra Support and find out what/how you are modifying your orders is different than all our other customers
 
Please provide their response for our review

Is a 10 messages-per-10-seconds limit sufficient for Sierra Chart's standard Trailing Stop order type, or should AMP increase the limit? I would like to potentially use 2 or 3 trailing stops active at the same time, and a limit of ten on very volatile instruments seems very low.

I found your January 2026 response regarding the same issue with Stage 5, where their limit was 30/10 seconds and Sierra Engineering recommended increasing it to approximately 50:

Stage5 Message Rate Limit Error (e.g. from using trailing stops)

Is your recommendation still to increase the Teton message limit in this situation? If so, what limit would you recommend for being to use 2 or 3 trailing stops?

Thank you for your help.
