Post From: PLEASE HELP!... STOP ORDERS NOT WORKING PROPERLY

What might have happened is the open was higher than the price for a brief second which might have caused issues with the stop order. I recommend placing stop order when market opens instead, else go with the "error check" approach I mentioned.

Logic:
If symbol price < 111.025 then buy stop order. Get the order ID of this buy stop order (refer to Sierra Chart documentation).
If symbol price > 111.025 and buy stop order ID is not filled, then cancel order and execute market order instead.
