duplicity in orders

Hi,

When there are two exit orders at a time in a strategy, instead of closing the position is reversed as the two orders are executed. In the previous version, MC 6, when running one of the other two orders immediately nullified.

Could you fix this bug?

Thanks

Please provide additional information on the subject:
-what is your version of MultiCharts

-what symbol and resolution are you trading
-a sample script for reproducing this behaviour

Hi,

It happened with the previous version of MC 7.4. Now I'm running MC 7.4 build 4953 and don't know if the bug's been fixed.

I work with two brokers (PFG and IB) and both have the same problem.

An example of duplicity in execution could be:

If openpositionprofit<x then
sell next bar at market;

if c crosses under y then
sell next bar at market;

When the two conditions happen in the same bar the long position must be closed not reversed.

It worked fine in MC 6. I don't know the reason why it doesn't work in MC 7.4. It's a simple thing.
