The video is not helpful. We cannot interpret it. The resolution is not acceptable as is usual. And there is way too much information display in there. This is why we do not accept videos.

What you describe regarding Flatten creating a position in the opposite direction cannot be true and this is confirmed:

As you can see, no additional market order is being sent.

Maybe, you are not getting the updated position quantity (Due to network connectivity issues) and you are getting confused by this.

It is clear what the problem is. There is a network connectivity issue to the Trading Evaluator server. We have changed the network connection for that to a different ISP. Let's see if that helps in your case.

These are child orders of the main parent order and it means that the main parent order has not yet filled and they are in a pending state. There is nothing unusual about this:
What do those "Pending Child Server" Lines mean?
