Post From: Problems with attached orders on FXCM

I am using the FXCM Fix setting in SIM mode and put on a Long position with 2 attached limit orders and 1 matching stop order before going out and the PC went to sleep. On return and waking the PC the stop order and 1st limit order had been ignored even though price went through them both and it filled immediately on the 2nd limit order. Trying another example I initiated a position then switched to another ticker on the quoteboard and the same thing happened, this time it also opened a short position with no attached orders. It seems to work fine when I have the active ticker DOM/charts open.

Is this a general issue with Sierra software in that for orders to trigger the active ticker must be kept open/streaming or is it specific to the FXCM fix/SIM and if so is there a setting to work around?
