An extra "Close Position" geerated after ExitShort

[tambaa]

Hello,

I have my strategy running and somehow when the ExitShort is run, it exits the short position. It also generates a close position entry which makes it an extra long position. Have anyone seen this type of behavior or knows how to prevent it?

Any help is appreciated.

I searched through the forums and saw something similar to what I was experiencing. I have changed my code and will see if this resolves it.

Tambaa,

Are you also Entering a position when using Exit?

The Close order is coming from the Enter() order which detected a position in the opposite direction, submitted the Close order to get out of that position and then would place an enter order for the new direction
