Code Snippet
============

Here are the relevant code details:

Entry Order:

EnterLong(Convert.ToInt32(QuantityBig), @"LongBig");

StopLoss Order in OnExecutionUpdate:

protected override void OnExecutionUpdate(......))

StopOrder = ExitLongStopMarket(0, true, execution.Order.Filled, execution.Order.AverageFillPrice - StopLossInitBig, "StopLong Init", @"LongBig");

TargetOrder = ExitLongLimit(0, true, execution.Order.Filled, execution.Order.AverageFillPrice + TakeProfitBig, "TargetLong", @"LongBig");

Trail Stop and Update Quantity and some time StopLoss Name change in OnBarUpdate():

protected override void OnBarUpdate()

if ((Stop Loss Condition))
{
StopOrder = ExitLongStopMarket(0, true, StopOrderQuantity, (Close[0] - STB1), "StopLong STB1", @"LongBig");
StopLongPrice = (Close[0] - STB1);
}
else if ((Stop Loss Condition & Profit Condition))
{
ExitLong(0, BigTL2, "TakeProfit STB2", @"LongBig");
TargetOrder = ExitLongLimit(0, true, StopOrderQuantity - BigTL2, TargetLongPrice, "TargetLong", @"LongBig");
StopOrder = ExitLongStopMarket(0, true, StopOrderQuantity - BigTL2, (Close[0] - STB2), "StopLong STB2", @"LongBig");
StopLongPrice = (Close[0] - STB2);
StopOrderQuantity = (StopOrderQuantity - BigTL2);
}
else
{
StopOrder = ExitLongStopMarket(0, true, StopOrderQuantity, (Close[0] - STB2), "StopLong STB2", @"LongBig");
StopLongPrice = (Close[0] - STB2);
}

As you can see from the above, I change the name inside the StopLoss Order object when the trade passes thru certain targets levels which I want to track. The problem is when I change the StopLoss name in the same order object, it does not seem to take it instead, it is keeping the old and creating a new order and what I end is with two duplicate working orders.

Can you suggest a method to avoid the issue and keep the same StopLoss order and to avoid the duplications?

Hello ajsdnyyrr1234DDf,

Thank you for your post.

You would either need to avoid using two signal names for essentially the same order or use two Order objects and cancel the one you are switching from.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
