Post From: Spreadsheet. Multiple entries with limit orders not appearing during same bar

Hi team! In some cases, my entry will fill and then my target will appear on screen and be filled at the same bar, and then there may be a second entry on that same bar after the first order is filled.

However, the second order doesn't always have a limit order appear on the chart, and it doesn't close except as a market order stop loss, or closed out manually.

This is a problem for me because I want to have my spreadsheet controlled algorithm trade only one order at a time, and as soon as an entry order is placed, a limit order is supposed to be placed as well.

Is there a known setting in Sierra Chart where I can make sure that even with the entries being triggered in the same bar, that each entry has a matching limit order? This only happens when it's in the same 5 minute bar.

Again, I'm only trying tk trade one order at a time, not multiple orders in the same direction
