I have a study that placed a trade on 5/1 at 2pm. According to the activity log the trade was placed by Client #77 and also shows my IP address. Less than a minute later the entry order was executed, leaving the Stop and Take Profit orders resting on the book. About 90 minutes later, at 3:30pm the attached stop and take profit orders were canceled by Client #25 and it shows the IP address of 127.0.0.1 (localhost). I am unable to determine what mechanism canceled my stop and take profit orders.

Help!

Maybe they were canceled by a sub instance of Sierra Chart. Check the Trade Activity Log of the sub instance.

Maybe they were canceled by a sub instance of Sierra Chart. Check the Trade Activity Log of the sub instance.

Where do I find the client #25 identifier?

Any idea how a sub-instance could alter the trades of a parent with no algo actively running? A sub was set to the same account number, but again, no algo running. The sub was just reading live price data.

You will not:
Where do I find the client #25 identifier?
This number is not relevant. Provide us the line from the Trade Activity Log showing where the order cancellation was initiated. Instructions:
Trade Activity Log: Providing Trade Activity Log Data Lines to Support


Otherwise, we do not have clear enough information to help.

Attached are the relevant two Trade Activity log files from 5/1. The mystery order cancellation occurred at 15:30:00:XX on the file ending in 411. On the file ending in 412, the cancellations occurred at 18:00:00:XX

Thank you for your help!

It looks like the order cancellations came from a sub instance.

You need to look in the Sub instance Trade Activity Log for those particular order cancellations. And see what the reason is.
