The reason for this is because the order quantity from TransAct for the order was reduced to 1 for unknown reasons: ActivityType DateTime Symbol OrderActionSource InternalOrderID ServiceOrderID OrderType Quantity BuySell Price Price2 OrderStatus FillPrice FilledQuantity TradeAccount OpenClose ParentInternalOrderID PositionQuantity FillExecutionServiceID HighDuringPosition LowDuringPosition Note

We are going to let TransAct know about this now. Since the behavior is not correct.

Actually we thought of a solution. We will take the greater of the Filled Quantity or the Order Quantity, as the quantity to compare to, to ensure the Attached Orders do not go above the maximum those two. This will be out by Monday.
