> > I know we've talked about this before, but wouldn't it be better to add another OrdStatus (say, Unsuspend) so that anyone explicitly wanting to reactivate an order would need to specify the instruction? I think it's potentially dangerous to implement a method where the absence of one thing implies another (i.e. reactivating an order by sending a cancel/replace w/o the suspend instruction).

Yes, this is what I meant. I cut and pasted without checking for accuracy. Sorry.

> Each of the ExecInst values is generally a boolean. An order is All or None or it isn't. It is Not Held or it isn't, Similarly, it is Suspended or it isn't. I see no reason to create an Unsuspend ExecInst unless we create an Un-All or None, an Un-Not Held, etc.
