I am placing 2 buy orders using SetHoldings() function and 2 sell orders using StopMarketOrder() function. So 4 total trades are executed. Inside the OnOrderEvent() function i am logging the Order Id for each event. GetOrderById(orderEvent.OrderId)
Shouldnt each individual order have a unique Order ID? Or is the ID defined by the function used to place the order? ID 4 for SetHoldings and ID 2 for StopMarketOrder?
Below is what i see in my logs
2020-01-03 00:00:00 : Order ID 4 for Ticker XOM is executed with Quantity 836.0
2020-01-03 00:00:00 : Order ID 4 for Ticker BP is executed with Quantity 1529.0
2020-02-26 00:00:00 : Order ID 2 for Ticker XOM is executed with Quantity -836.0
2020-03-10 00:00:00 : Order ID 2 for Ticker BP is executed with Quantity -1529.0Thanks in advance :)

Hi Mohamed
The OrderID is unique per order. In the attached algorithm, you're referring to the.Type property of the Order which is NOT the order ID. It is an enum of the order type. You probably want to change `str(fetched.Type)` into `fetched.OrderId` for testing that.
