Post From: Triggered Step Trailing Stop issue

I am having 2 issues. Once the Triggered Trailing Stop moves the correct distance, the order somehow is getting changed from the correct Triggered Step Trailing Stop order to a Triggered Step Trailing Stop Limit order.. Why is it changing to a step trailing stop limit order? also it quits the step trailing and does not move any further once next step/trigger is reached

below is the code I am using..

else if (StopLossType == 2) // Triggered Step Trailing Stop
{
NewOrder.Stop1Offset = StopOffset;
NewOrder.AttachedOrderStop1Type = SCT_ORDERTYPE_TRIGGERED_STEP_TRAILING_STOP;

// Convert ticks to actual price values (documentation specifies price values, not ticks)
float TriggerOffset = Input_StopLossStepTicks.GetInt() * sc.TickSize;
float TrailOffset = StopOffset; // Use stop offset as trail offset

NewOrder.AttachedOrderStop1_TriggeredTrailStopTriggerPriceOffset = TriggerOffset;
NewOrder.AttachedOrderStop1_TriggeredTrailStopTrailPriceOffset = TrailOffset;

SCString StepDebug;
StepDebug.Format("LONG Triggered Step Trailing Stop: TriggerOffset=%.2f, TrailOffset=%.2f", TriggerOffset, TrailOffset);
sc.AddMessageToLog(StepDebug, 0);
sc.AddMessageToLog("Attached TRIGGERED STEP TRAILING STOP order", 0);
}
