An Enter Long Order executing from a ExitShort() ?

[Danilod]

A strange thing happen to me today. I had my strategy running with a Short Order open when on one single bar, two ExitShort () orders happened. The first one closed the Short order but the second instead of doing nothing (what I was expecting), it executed a Long Order. This happened in a live environment; in fact, when i run the backtest it doesn't happen. When I check "Trade Performance" the Long Entry Name is in fact the name of my exit strategy: "SX_ShortStopLossDyn"

The order that generated the long order was ExitShort(@"SX_ShortStopLossDyn", String.Empty);

Could the "String.Empty" generated the issue? Any ideas how to prevent this from happening again?

Thanks
