Profit Target Complications and Programming Questions

[FBraun]

I am trading with a trade copier but I don't necessarily think thats the problem.
I submitted a sell order with the ATM strategy and then when it reached 'Profit Target' the ATM submitted a "Buy-to-Cover" order that was double the order quantity.
To explain further, if i submit 2 Sell Order Quantity than 2 MORE Order Quantity are submitted for the 'Buy-to-Cover' once profit target is reached making my total order quantity 4 contracts.
Is this normal?
Is there some sort of programming I need to do like "OnOrderExecution or OnOrderUpdate" for the stops and targets to be submitted correctly??
With this ATM setup it requires having twice the margin just to exit at profit target!

Also the Log files say the account isn't setup for Automated Trading, not sure if my NT8 platform just isn't setup correctly for what I'm trying to accomplish. It's a fresh install of NT8 so maybe I don't have something enabled?

Please help, thanks in advance!

Hello FBraun,

Because you are using a trade copier I couldn't say if that's normal, I would suggest to disable that item and any other custom items that modify orders and then retest the situation.

ATM orders are self managed meaning they use what is in the template, you should not need to do anything but submit the order to have it managed.

I am not sure for the log message, if you can post the exact message you are seeing I can check into that.
