Post From: Attached Trade Window does not update profit/loss twconfig filenames correctly if similar

There is a strange thing that happens sometimes when I name a series of target and stop orders that are similar. I exited the application and restarted it and that did not fix it. Have not tried reinstalling it yet, although I seem to remember doing that in the past by updating to a new version and that did not resolve the problem.

If I add the following twconfig files, the first number is a reference to the profit target and the second to the stop loss which is zero for these examples.

percent qty1 .01 0
percent qty1 .02 0
percent qty1 .03 0

Then I set each one to their respective profit target of .01 .02 or .03. When I select it from the drop down list in the attached trade window the parameters will update correctly in their fields but the name at the top will stay the same as the first one.

The way around this is that I add some other characters such as extra periods to the name. Then it will update in the drop down list correctly.

percent qty1 .01.twconfig
percent qty1 .02..twconfig
percent qty1 .03...twconfig
