Hi Support,

I am simulating using my ACSIL trading system. I enable Scale-In and I have modifications of attached stop orders.
The scaled-in stop order is modified and completed as per the trading activity log. The issue is the trade simulation is not processing the stop order. For example, In a long position and price goes below the stop, the stop is not executed. It just keeps being modified which means its still recognized by ACSIL as working stop order but not executed at all..
This behavior is occasional as for some cases during simulation, the stop order changes and executes when price goes below it in long or above it in short and some other cases during same simulation it is not honored as in attached example, though the order modify is complete.

Take into account If Scale-In is not enabled, this issue will vanish and modified stop orders are executed when price goes below it.

Kindly refer to the attached figure, where price is shown below the stop and the stop order is not executed.
Is this an expected behavior ?

Thanks a lot for your kind feedback ...

Scale In has no effect upon the filling of orders.

For reasons why an order may not fill, refer to:
