I don't know why TS6 requires the "Next Bar" syntax when TS4/TS2k
didn't.
But that doesn't change the behavior. Stop/limit orders have ALWAYS
executed on the next bar. The "next bar" syntax was just syntactic
sugar to make the statement look pretty -- it didn't actually change
the statement semantics.
If you were trying to get the orders to happen in THIS bar, then you
have a problem. TS doesn't do that, and never has. System code
executes on the CLOSE of the bar. It's too late to do anything in
the current bar, except buy/sell at the close. Stops and limits
apply to the NEXT bar only.
