NewOrderList - Stop & Limits

Hello,

I try to create stop/limit when opening a position however instead it is creating order types LE & SE instead of L & S. This was working correctly previously, seems to be broken after some changes to my account or the api.
Can you kindly advise how I can fix this. Outgoing message copied below, incoming messages in attachment.

Hello

I want to open a new trade, with the stop and limit set (see the thread at: http://forexforums.dailyfx.com/fix-a...er-single.html). For some strange reason, this has stopped working now, this was working previously.
What you are saying is to set the stop/limit for an existing open trade, which I am also using and is working correctly.

There are two ways you can go about doing this. You can use OrderList where you send a market order with StopEntry and LimitEntry tied together as OCO. Alternatively, after you get position report of an open position, you can use the positionID to attach stop and limit to that position.
