Post From: attached orders problem/split trade

hi i just made my first trade with my broker CTS through sierra charts.

i sold 3 lots of euro with an attached order associated for my stop.

i then get a message from my risk manager at topsteptrader saying that i was short 3 but only had a stop of 1. this was a big surprise to me and pretty embarrassing.
i then checked my orders and for some reason my sell of 3 was split into a sell of 1 and a sell of 2, all at the same price. so it seems that the attached orders were put on for the 1 lot but not the 2 lot.

please can explain this.

thank you

regards

Daniel
