When the open position's target is met, the position closes profitable. But, the awaiting orders are also cancelled. I do not have OCO checked on.
For example, I'm long ES at 2175.00 with a target of 2 ticks..
I also have an open limit order to buy when price reaches 2175.75.
Target of 2175.50 is met and position closed.
Price takes off, but my limit order was cancelled already.
I believe this has occurred with both limit orders and Stop-limit orders awaiting fill (I'm not 100% sure on that though).
I do have an ATM strategy attached, which is simply Profit = 2 ticks; Stop-Loss = 30 ticks. I have not written any NinjaTrader code or anything.
I'm using SelectActiveAtmStrategyOnOrderSubmission.
Is this normal behavior? I could swear that there are times when my open orders are not cancelled upon target met, and I wonder what I am doing differently.
