On one of my positions I got this error:

"OmniTrader 2019 Auto Trade Error: Processing Trade Plan Order for 'NFX' failed with reason: 'Unknown contract'."

It was a CRT-3 trade, so the TP has a FL stop at 3 ATR and the SMA profit stop set a 5. After getting this error I looked at the orders OT is using for the trade and the SMA stop is gone. poof! I did NOT adjust the orders set against the trade (before this - fixed it now).

BTW NFX is just a company - newfield exploration

How could this have happened? What generates this error? Not good - losing your profit exit on a live trade in autotrade mode.
