Bracket Order BUY with Limit type instead of Market

See original GitHub issue

When trying to buy using Bracket order , instead of doing Market order on BUY trying to do Limit, order type I get an error. is that excepted? I have verified that orderDto.BuyPrice has value and if I change LimitOrder.Buy to MarketOrder.Buy it works

    var order = await AlpacaTradingClientStrategy.GetAlpacaTradingClient().PostOrderAsync(
              LimitOrder.Buy(orderDto.Symbol, orderDto.Quantity, orderDto.BuyPrice)
                  .WithDuration(TimeInForce.Gtc)
                  .Bracket(
                      stopLossStopPrice: orderDto.BuyPrice * orderDto.StopLossPricePercent,
                      takeProfitLimitPrice: orderDto.BuyPrice * orderDto.TakeProfitLimitPricePercent
                  ));
