Weird OCO ID bug when trading

[majoraspberry]

The error is:

Sim 101, Order '3598303dee8241a2ae778a2f53ace451' can't be submitted: The OCO ID 'e7d53bcfe33647358a9cfa50b3f6a2b0' cannot be reused. Please use a new OCO ID. affected Order: Sell 10000 Limit @ 0.75864

I don't know what this means, and I am getting it trading FX on my sim account. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hi,

I had this a number of times, too. One possible cause is the following sequence of events:

1. Enter a long position, using an ATM Strategy for placing a stop and target order
2. ATM places stop sell order, but the stop distance is too tight, i.e. stop order is already invalid at the time of submission due to market movement, i.e. stop sell order is above the market
3. Stop order gets rejected
4. ATM places target limit sell order, using the same OCO ID as the already-rejected stop order (resulting in the target order not being placed and causing the error message cited above, because apparently the OCO ID is already marked as "burned" at this time)

So I'd consider this error message normal, provided the stop order was indeed invalid. This should also be visible in the log.

Kind regards,
Gurk
