OrderSend() now able to open trades with SL/TP on ECN broker?

I searched for information about this issue, but I didn't found anything...

On my MT4 platform I can MANUALLY open a new trade with "Market Execution", where "Stop Loss" and "Take Profit" options are disabled. But when using EA I can open a trade with real positive stops defined in OrderSend() function, and no OrderModify() is really needed.

I wonder what is going on, this was not possible before (I don't know since when it started to work), now there is no error 130, and I can't find information that OrderSend() is updated to open trades like this.

Can someone confirm that OrderSend() with stops now works with ECN brokers, or I have non-ECN broker that appears like ECN?
What about MT5?

Obviously I'm the same person. I also sent a question to the support team of mql5.com, buuuut.... at the moment this site is down, it's very fragile.

I'm just wondering if I have to use OrderSend()->OrderModify() combination when it's possible to do it only with OrderSend() now. I know that in the past this was not possible, but now for some reason is working. And I want to find that reason
