Hello! What settings need to be made so that a stop order only closes a position? Please help me figure it out.

ReduceOnly for Stop Attached Orders - this item is marked True, but stop order can still open a position.

I trade on the Bitmtex exchange and always place several stop orders nearby. This is necessary for safety reasons, since on Bitmex, during a strong movement, the stop order can simply be canceled. Each stop order is equal to the size of an open position. And when one of them triggered, the rest are simply canceled. In Sierra, I can't do the same - when I place several stop orders and one of them is triggered, the rest start to open a position. In the settings, the option "Specify ReduceOnly for Stop Attached Orders" is set True. Please explain to me how to set up Sierra so that stop orders work like in the example with Bitmex that I gave above.
