Could you please refer to the documentation here and see if what you are seeing is consistent with the documentation:

If not, we will look at this.

One thing we cannot tell, is whether these Target and Stop orders from your description, are resting orders. Or if you are using the Spreadsheet Trading study and they are submitted when the trigger price is met. It sounds like the 2nd case.

We recommend using Attached Orders always for Targets and Stops.
