ACSIL - Can't find the doc for NewOrder.OrderQuantity for managing size

Hi,

I can't find the doc or any example on OrderQuantity where the size is above 1.

I'm trying to create a simple if else statement where the quantity is 1 or 2 but it says that the allowed quantity has been reached even with: sc.MaximumPositionAllowed = 5;

Here is my code (it's just a simple test to see if it works):

if(Hour < 7)
        {
          NewOrder.OrderQuantity = 2;
          NewOrder.OCOGroup1Quantity = 2;
        }
        if(Hour >= 7)
        {
          NewOrder.OrderQuantity = 1;
          NewOrder.OCOGroup1Quantity = 1;
        }

If you could just point me to the documentation or let me know what I'm doing wrong I would appreciate.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards
