Post From: Open Order not Matching Stops, Targets and Chart

Hi, I initiated a limit order position for 8 contracts long. The trade report says I got filled for 8 contracts. The chart dom was showing I was 4 contracts long, with a 6 point stop, and 2 targets with 2 & 4 contracts. The chart trade line was saying I was 6 contracts long, which at least matched the stops and targets. However both were incorrect as I was actually 8 contracts long. I moved my stop to break even which was triggered. It got me out for 6 with some positive slip, but then the trade report and the chart shows another position opened and closed for 2 contracts at break even. I don’t understand what has happened, and what risk there may have been. I am using CTS with server side order management features disabled. This is also with Top Step Trader in the combine. I have looked at the trade report and what I can see is there are multiple messages stating “modifying of order is being delayed”. I would like to know what happened here, and is this common to have the chart dom not representing the actual position quantities? In real time I did not notice, only afterwards. Please see attached screen shot and trade activity. Thank you.
