Post From: Move to Break Even Stop - Parent Fill has Slippage

It has always been the case that Sierra Chart uses the parent order fill price as the move to breakeven reference price.


In newer versions of Sierra Chart every time the move to breakeven price changes, it is logged like the following:
ActivityType  DateTime  Symbol  OrderActionSource  InternalOrderID  ServiceOrderID  OrderType  Quantity  BuySell  Price  Price2  OrderStatus  FillPrice  FilledQuantity  TradeAccount  OpenClose  ParentInternalOrderID  PositionQuantity  FillExecutionServiceID  HighDuringPosition  Note  LowDuringPosition  AccountBalance
Order  2018-09-21 06:22:40.212  [Sim]ESZ18  Updating move to breakeven stop reference price on parent modification/fill to 2941.25  23155    Stop    Sell  2938.75    Pending Child-Client      Sim1  Close  23153    


We have done some recent work on this, and we are not aware of any outstanding issue and if there is we need to see how to reproduce this.



Would be best to provide us the Trade Activity Log lines for the parent order and the associated Stop order so we can look at it.
