Numpad6::SendInput("+d") ; Buy Limit at Cursor (Shift + D)

Would be a prime suspect.

Technically, these could have also generated Buy Limit parent orders:

Numpad5::SendInput("!d") ; Buy at Bid
Numpad0::SendInput("!1") ; Buy at Bid - 1
$NumpadDot::SendInput("!2") ; Buy at Bid - 2
NumpadEnter::SendInput("!3") ; Buy at Bid - 3

Key History was 0, so impossible to tell for sure what this was.

If you are going to use these scripts, KeyWait is probably a good idea.

To reiterate, something rapidly created new parent orders. Nothing in Sierra does that without user programming or interaction.
