Post From: Stop order placed, seeing it as StopLimit

Following on this related to Stop-Limit orders and TT

We are seeing that when the Stop-Limit is triggered, the stop price gets modified to the limit price (see log below, notice in the 2nd log message price1 changes).
In other words, the initial order has price1=n, price2=m
The stop gets triggered and we see a modification which results in price1=m, price2=m

We need to able to detect this (otherwise the we see that the stop price is not what we expect it to be, we then try and modify it and get errors in the logs).
One obvious way to detect this happening is comparing price1 with price2

Just wanted to check with you if you think this is the way or you have another idea.
