Orders disappearing! - page 2

Hello all! A novice MT5 user here. In the past few days I've noticed some weird behavior in Metatrader when I've placed my orders. For some unknown reason, some of my orders (which have been successfully executed according to the journal) just simply disappear. Initially, I though this was due to the expiration date and time, but that turned out to be wrong because I literally witnessed the whole thing happen before me. Basically, the current price of the symbol (in this example it was both EURUSD and USDACAD) reached the my order price (sell limit or buy limit, no difference), the order dashed line on the chart disappeared (meaning it was activated), then the price went up and hit the tp dashed line and the order was done. However, during all these actions, literally no logs were created in the journal or the history or anywhere else for that matter. The order just vanished! I checked the journal. There are logs indicating a successful placing of the order, but there is absolutely nothing pointing to the result of the order. sadly I couldn't take a snapshot of the whole thing, but I can share a screenshot of the journal if it helps. Does anyone know the reason behind this behavior?!

The exact same thing is happening to me on a demo account I'm using for testing, I've tried experimenting with different ORDER_FILLING types but it doesn't change anything. Did you find a solution?
