hi i just made my first trade with my broker CTS through sierra charts.

i sold 3 lots of euro with an attached order associated for my stop.

i then get a message from my risk manager at topsteptrader saying that i was short 3 but only had a stop of 1. this was a big surprise to me and pretty embarrassing.
i then checked my orders and for some reason my sell of 3 was split into a sell of 1 and a sell of 2, all at the same price. so it seems that the attached orders were put on for the 1 lot but not the 2 lot.

please can explain this.

thank you

regards

Daniel

In the Attached Order settings, set the OCO Group setting for the Stop order to "All Groups".

More information about this is here:

Or if it is the case already, then the problem is the 2 lot Stop order got rejected by the CTS T4 server.
