Description

Using two separate strategies, say Strategy A and Strategy B to autotrade, in which they both have Stop or Limit Orders. As they work independent to each other, they may send out a Stop Order simultaneously wtih two different prices, say
   Buy next bar at 10000 stop;
   Buy next bar at 10050 stop;
In normal circumstances, when the nearest price order is executed, i.e. the first order in the above example, the second one will be cancelled.
The order will be over-traded to double the # of contracts specified if it is in a very fast market when when market price is moving very fast the price different of the two stop orders is too small.
So a new feature is requested to limit the number of Limit orders / Stop orders to one, generated from strategies applied.

Steps to reproduce this issue

Apply two strategies which both have stop or limit orders
