junkone, are you sure you're trading a higher qty here than 1, so there would be actually a position to exit / scale out from still as your orders hit?

Thanks,

[junkone]

as you can see from the tracelogs, i started with 2 as my position size, it then issued a order to sell 1 and the second order keeps failing.

value of trending Trending(0).HigherHigh[1] 1
