Post From: ATM leaving buy/sell orders after targets are filled

Thanks for the response.

After a few additional hours of troubleshooting I figured it out: The first target (further away) was assigned to OCO group 1 and the second target (closer) was assigned OCO group 2.

I simply reversed things so that OCO group 1 was assigned to the closer target and OCO group 2 was assigned to the more distant target.

The problem existed because: Although add-ons were added to the closer TARGET the STOPS for the add-ons were added for the second target. Hence when the first target was hit, all add-ons were covered but excess buy/sell stops were left over. And when the final target was hit the excess buy/sell stops remained -- and could be filled if price reversed (not cool).

I don't know if this would be considered a bug or a misconfiguration on my end. Here's the steps to reproduce, if it helps:

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
-------------------
1 - Create target 1 at 50 ticks away and assign to OCO Group 2
2 - Create target 2 at 10 ticks away and assign to OCO Group 1
3 - Create a 10 tick "stop: stop" assigned to "all OCO Groups"
4 - Save config
5 - Enter long and quickly add on
6 - First target is assigned 3 contracts and second target is assigned 1 contract
7 - ?? > First target is reached but 3 sell stops remain. EXPECTED > 1 sell stop remains
8 - Second target is reached and 2 sell stops remain
9 - Price reverses and sell stops are filled
