Post From: Parent Order not following J26 value ?

I have an apparent problem with the Parent Order of an Order Configuration and Attached Order.

J26 in the spreadsheet is set to 3
There are 3 Attached Order targets (MIT) and 1 Stop All
Order Entry is for quantity of 3, a Market Buy/Sell
the 3 button is selected in the Order Entry preset.
The Preset is saved.
In the Spreadsheet Study, Maximum Position Allowed is 3

When the trade signal occurs, I get the error:
Trade Order Error: The order quantity for the Parent Order is 1 and this is less than the total order quantity of 3 for the Attached Orders. Adjust the order quantities so the parent is greater or equal to the Attached Orders.

The Trade Window is reset to a quantity of 1

Other Preset Trades with a quantity of 1 trigger fine on the trade signal, of course.

I have read the documentation and don't see an error in the setup for a 3 contract trade.
What am I missing here ?

thank you
