Post From: Triggered Trailing Stop and Trailing Stop Limit Issues

Using attached orders with the spreadsheet trader and have encountered some issues with trailing stop order management.

Issue 1: Almost all of the attached order trailing stop order types result in an immediate close of long orders only. Short orders are functioning as expected. This includes trying to use Trade Management by Study as a way of managing trailing stops.

Issue 2: Triggered trailing stop limits do not result in immediate closing of long orders, but the trailing stop and offset show as an open order ABOVE the buy price level. Short order triggered trailing stops are working as expected with a trailing stop and offset above the short price level.

Attached an image of the order window and an open triggered trailing stop limit order above the buy price level.
