Post From: Problem with BitMEX live account: sc.ModifyOrder method problem

Dear support,
my bot, connected to BitMEX live account, is modifying Stop Orders by sc.ModifyOrder method.
Yesterday my customer found a problem: sc.ModifyOrder method returned positive result ( > 0 ), but in reality modified order was not modified and the following text was printed into Trade Service Log:

Order modification failed | BitMEX Trading Direct error: The system is currently overloaded. Please try again later. Internal Order ID: 8980. Service Order ID: 8b596b7b-4c0b-7cfb-5868-7a2b9aaee702. Symbol: XBTUSD-BMEX | 2019-02-05 10:48:03 *
BitMEX Trading Direct | Requesting historical order fills for account 823980. Start Date-Time: 2019-02-05 09:37:59 | 2019-02-05 10:48:06
BitMEX Trading Direct | Received 1 order fills. Inserting the ones that do not exist. | 2019-02-05 10:48:11


So, question is - why SierraChart's method sc.ModifyOrder returned positive result - confirmation of successful modification of order, but in reality Order modification was failed?

How I may to avoid this problems in future?

Waiting for your reply, Alex.
