Post From: trade copy muliple accounts

Why in the world would it do that, since the Order Allocation was set to be the same as the "copy from" account? Why would Flatten ever cause an order to be placed instead of closed? I appreciate your help.

Easy for that to happen when the master account gets all its contract filled and the copied accounts dont.
ie: buy long 5 contracts at limit price. Master account get filled with the 5 contracts and the copy accounts only get filled for 4 contracts.
So using the flatten button the the master account sends the same sell order to the copied accounts. Which results in 4 contracts closed "sold" and one contract opened "short position" on the copied accounts.
Its simple math.
