Now that I'm starting to trade Globex more and more, I'm noticing a strange and disconcerting issue. When I place a buy or sell (to open) order, I always use an attached OCO group with 2 targets and a trailing stop. This works great during RTH, and I've never had a problem with the OCO dropping off after being activated. During Globex just before midnight (Chicago time), if I have an active order the OCO group disappears. It's happened several times recently, when I'm holding an order during Globex. All my settings are GTC... Main trading window TIF, and for each OCO (T1, T1, stop). I'd like to get to the bottom of this, as it is courting with disaster.

You also need to set Good till Canceled on the Targets tab of the Trade Window: Attached Orders: Time In Force If the orders are still getting canceled we need to know why that is happening. You can check for the reason in the Trade Activity Log: Trade Activity Log: Viewing Historical Trade Activity Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

This is what I tried to say here... | All my settings are GTC... Main trading window TIF, and for each OCO (T1, T1, stop). Everything is set GTC - the [main] trade window, and for each OCO in [Targets]: o T1 is set GTC. o T2 is set GTC. o STOP is set GTC, which appears in the "Break Even" section. The trade activity log solved my issue: The log showed "Cancel Order at Set Time" event taking place. The [A] tab on my trade window showed the feature was [disabled]. Further investigation showed that the cancel was being triggered by a deprecated (I no longer use it) closed trade window from another chart in another chartbook, which I still keep open. Thank you for providing me the resources (hints) necessary to self-service this problem! Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-11-11 17:50:27
