Post From: 'Invalid ExecInst' error with BitMEX Stop Market orders

I am using OCOs to set a stop market order beyond my entry price, and in my Data/Trade Service settings I have added 'Close' as a parameter for the 'Additional 'execInst' for Stop Orders' service setting.

However, when I execute my entry, the stop order is rejected by bitmex, I get this error:

New order rejected - BitMEX Trading Direct error: Invalid execInst. Internal Order ID: 2475. Service Order ID: (none). Symbol: XBTUSD-BMEX. Account: xxxxxxx | 2019-10-07 11:01:15.971 *

Please excuse me if this isn't a problem at your end, I will contact BitMEX if that is the case. Thank you!
