I autotrade with TS and owntrade

sometimes the TWS shows the order which should be canceled by ts

but the order is a little different from normal order

the order shows IB

what is wrong

thank you

Some exchanges do not have native support for stop orders so IB simulates them. Is the order with "IB" placed on a different exchange? If so the "IB" may mean it is a simulated stop order. Just a guess.
 
today in the morning the tradestation activates a buy order

so does the owntrade

on the moment the owntrade loses connection with IB tws for a few seconds

later the tradestation cancels the buy order

but in the IB tws the buy order remains

here is the pic

IB trading platform looks very confusing. Complexity in trading is a bad thing, it causes all kinds of problems, from technical to human.
