{{Quickfixn}} What is difference between "IsLoggedOn" & "IsStopped"?

[Grant Birchmeier]

You have two initiator objects, correct?  (One for MD session, the other
for orders.)  One of them will return true from this method, the other will
return false.

The nature of your question makes me wonder if you're inadvertently doing
something in an odd fashion, but I'm not sure what to ask in order to tease
that out.
