Possibly orphaned trade

Possibly orphaned trade - 05/04/18 16:59

Any idea why Zorro thought the trade was possibly orphaned:

[EURUSD_AT::S0672] Short 1@1.19741 Risk 5 p at 12:31:49
Error 070 - possibly orphaned trade
1000 EUR/USD on 05-04 12:32:57 UTC

As far as I can see Zorro received the ID of the trade and therefore could handle it fully:

[EURUSD_AT::S0672] Cover 1@1.19752: -0.25 at 12:33:09

Is the broker FXCM?

No, it was ActiveTrades via MT4.

The message means that you should check the trade, since something was wrong with the API response. It can also be an orphan on the other side, a trade that Zorro manages but that was not really opened. If all trades of Zorro and MT4 are in sync, everything is fine.
