Post From: Spreadsheet Trading- Open/Close order type (and CancelAllWorkingOrdersOnExit)

1) Let me rephrase, as this is not actually related to spreadsheet systems, and is indeed within the scope of your support.
When there is a Long position and an attached stop order (of Close type). And I have disabled the scale-out option. So, a new short order will have its own attached orders (if those are enabled).

Question: shouldn't this new Short order, being an independent new one, have an Open type (in Open/Close column in the Orders window)? That it has the ability to close the first position (if its price is closer than the original attached order) should not matter in my opinion. Otherwise what is the point of disabling scaling out, if not to create fresh independent orders that might Open new opposite positions.

Q2: If I am somehow thinking this wrong, is it logical that the new Short order's (which is regarded by SC as a Close order) attached orders be regarded as Open orders?

2) I agree to pay to have this functionality, even though this will directly benefit all your customers, as it makes total sense to do it this way.
