Post From: ACSIL s_SCNewOrder::TextTag maximum length and truncation behavior

Hello,

I am using ACSIL automated trading and setting "s_SCNewOrder::TextTag" before submitting orders with "sc.BuyEntry() / sc.SellEntry()".

I would like to use the TextTag only as a reference identifier for matching orders back to my own external JSONL trading journal.

Example TextTag I am considering: TID=20260601_C039_V117_L_093815_042

This is approximately 37 characters.

Please address following questions:

1. What is the maximum supported length for "s_SCNewOrder::TextTag" in ACSIL?
2. If the TextTag exceeds the supported length, is it truncated, rejected, or handled another way?
3. Is the same TextTag length available consistently in:
- Trade Activity Log / Order Action Source
- Trade Activity Log / Note field
- Trade Orders window Text Tag field
- ACSIL retrieval through order structures such as "s_SCTradeOrder::TextTag"
4. Is there any difference in TextTag behavior between simulated trading and live trading / external trade services?
5. Are there any characters that should be avoided in TextTag? For example: `=`, `_`, `|`, `-`, `:`
6. Is it safe to rely on TextTag as a short identifier, while storing the full detailed order metadata externally?

Thank you!!
