Alex,
Only GUI controls can be disabled. An algorithm itself cannot be disable via 
the mechanisms of ATDL. It is up to the OMS/EMS to know which algorithms are 
for single orders, pairs and baskets and present them to the user at the 
appropriate times. Determining this should be done during the importing process 
(when an ATDL file is uploaded into the OMS/EMS) and is out of ATLD's scope.
The attribute totalOrders is used to indicate that the broker wishes to recieve 
basket orders in a group of NewOrderSingle messages tied together by a common 
indentifier. This common idenitifier (or basket ID) is placed in the tag 
reference by commonIdentifierTag. So when uploading a strategy look to see if 
this attribute is provided, if it is then it is a basket algorithm.
