Post From: Problem with Live Trade using Teton Order Routing and attached Stop Loss

I was trading ES during cash session today and I entered a trade (1 contract) using a buy limit order at around 11:21 (see attached Trade activity log). This had an attached Stop order. The market swept against me immediately as i got filled. My stop loss was 6 ticks. It seems as though the Stop loss order did not trigger and then seemed to cancel because now the price was below the sell stop order. So not only did I not get stopped out for 6 ticks (or slightly more with slippage) but I had an unprotected position. I then manually with mouse (used a market if touched order; i could have also hit flatten but this is what i am used to doing)-i dont believe you allow for straight market order on the mouse ? At this point I took a 13 tick loss instead of an expected 6 tick loss. I would like you to look at the trade activity log I am providing and let me know what if anything went wrong or how it could have been done differently to avoid this - other than not trading. I can also provide you a short video of the trade if that helps in any way. Thank you SL |
