Spreadsheet Buy Entry Failure to Launch

I want to use the Spreadsheet to launch buy orders, and use Attached Orders to set a bracket trade. Had to hardcode the quantity in j26 because it kept defaulting to 1 after each initial hit. As you can see in K3 the formula is true, but the Attached Order did not trigger. How do I troubleshoot this???

Thanks

Note: this was working for awhile, then I tested another stop method and has not worked since.

OK I found the problem. Max Long Position was set to 1000, so when I increased the position to 2500 it stopped working.

Ok that is good.

What we were going to say is make sure the Attached Orders have a Time in Force of Good till Canceled:
Attached Orders: Time In Force

Maybe they were getting canceled earlier.
