Post From: Flatten and cancel

Thanks. Is it possible to pay for remote assistance or pay to have Sierra Chart look at my trade log and possibly code? ...or just to answer another question here?: I'm now wondering if there's a race condition that I, and others who use "flatten and close" should know about.

For my trading, I don't have set targets, so always must manually close out positions, which I've been doing with "flatten and close".

Is that naive to do in some cases? If necessary, I can try to detect that the order is already in the process of being closed-out by my broker, though that gets more complex in cases where an initial order was split. I thought I could avoid all that management by letting Sierra Chart handle it for me, with a simple "flatten and close" request.

Best Regards,
Ted
