I have StopLimit order with TriggeredTrailingStop order attached with trigger price offset set, but Stop order starts to trail immediately. Strategies built on v1614 and before worked well with same code (at the moment using version 1635) s_SCNewOrder NewOrder;
NewOrder.OrderQuantity = (unsigned int) OrderAmount; NewOrder.OrderType = SCT_ORDERTYPE_STOP_LIMIT; NewOrder.AttachedOrderStop1Type = SCT_ORDERTYPE_TRIGGERED_TRAILING_STOP_3_OFFSETS; NewOrder.TriggeredTrailStopTriggerPriceOffset = TicksForTrailingStopLoss * sc.TickSize; NewOrder.TriggeredTrailStopTrailPriceOffset = TrailingStopTickDistance * sc.TickSize; NewOrder.TimeInForce = SCT_TIF_GTC; NewOrder.Price1 = HighData[sc.Index-1] + OrderHighLowOffset * sc.TickSize; NewOrder.Price2 = NewOrder.Price1; NewOrder.Stop1Price = NewOrder.Price1 - StopLoss * sc.TickSize; Result = sc.BuyEntry(NewOrder); ... Attached order has following parameters set: Price1: 1727.4, Price2: 1727.4 Type: 9, TriggerOffset: 2.000000, TrailOffset: 0.200000, StopPrice: 1725.40 It starts trailing immediately, even before fullfilling the Offset (it should trail after hitting 1729.4) |

We had a look at this, and there are no changes in this area of the code at all and we see no obvious problems. You need to look carefully at your code and make sure you are setting both of these offsets correctly. NewOrder.TriggeredTrailStopTriggerPriceOffset = TicksForTrailingStopLoss * sc.TickSize;
NewOrder.TriggeredTrailStopTrailPriceOffset = TrailingStopTickDistance * sc.TickSize; We recommend performing step-by-step debugging: Step-By-Step ACSIL Debugging Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Neither we did any changes. We didnt even rebuilt the strategy. I have run one chart (study in there is built on 1608) unchanged between SC versions and there is behavior change between versions 1623 and 1625 1623 - works 1625 - incorrect trailing behavior Date Time Of Last Edit: 2017-11-08 13:44:46

We have verified the issue. It is a serious issue involving order type matching between ACSIL and the main Sierra Chart program. We are working on implementing a solution now so that it is corrected and does not happen again. The problem arose when we added Limit if Touched orders.

This is now resolved in version 1640.
