ATI Exit Orders for Stop

[dbvaello]

We are using the .net Command("Place"... to send a market order, limit target and stop. Is there a specific exit parameter for a stop like there is via NinjaScript (ExitShortStopLimit)? When sending a StopLimit the stop exit orders end up going to market when the best bid/ask touches the stop - often without any actual trade taking place at the price - a virtual anomaly in my book. Just curious if there is a specific way to send a StopLimit in the ATI for the equivalent of an ExitShortStopLimit command in NTscript?

Thanks!

DB, are you sure you send a StopLimit and not a regular StopMarket order instead?

What limit and stop prices are you sending it at?

If you forward us your logs via Help > Mail to Support we can pin down what exact order was received and how it then executed on NT.

Yes i am sure....
Command("Place", "Sim101", "ES 09-10", "BUY", 1, "STOPLIMIT", 1050.00, 1050.00, "", "", "STOPLIMIT Date Time", "", "")

If this is correct then I will just test further. If there is a specific parameter for an "exit" stop rather than an "entry" stop order then I will rethink this but my guess is I have it right and the sim is just fouling it.

Thanks for confirming this is correct, there's no Exit command as there's no signal tracking, just the Command function to submit your orders.

OK I will test live shortly and let you know if the problem persists.
