Six of the contracts are filled and the remaining four contracts are unfilled. MultiCharts will convert the sell limit order for the remaining contracts to a sell market order at the close of the bar. (e.g., If the chart is plotting 5 minute bars, then the remaining portion of the limit order will be converted to a market order at the close of the 5 minute bar.)<br><br><div style="background-color: #E3FBE5;">Note: As long as there is a partially filled order, MultiCharts will always convert the order as described in Since Multicharts 11 Beta 1 this step regardless of any settings that are in '''Unfilled Strategy Order Replacement'''.
