Matthew,
I experience repeatedly unwanted trades by EMini eXpress. I use TradeBullet and Interactive Brokers.
The latest one broke my Restriction of max. 2 contracts. When I was short 2 the system went short another 2, hence increasing my exposure beyond the specified limit.
How is this possible? I thought Collective2 controls the maximum number of contracts at any point in time?
What can I do to remedy these hickups?
The order that should not exist is this one:
