TS 8.1 SP1 Globex Stop Order Location

It has been my understanding that on the CME's Globex system a Stop order was not a native order. Therefore to have a stop order reside on the globex computer required sending the order as a Stop Limit order (Stop Limit being a native order).

Since Easylanguage does not support Stop Limit orders, I'm confused where an order generated by a statement such as:

"Buy next bar at 750 stop;" will reside (assuming applied to a globex symbol chart).

So can someone confirm, using TS 8.1 SP1 with the option checked "Send strategy generated stop orders directly to the TradeStation Order Execution Network", where that order actually resides. Is it on the Globex computer or Tradestation Securities computer or my computer.

And is there any order status feedback that identifies exactly where that order is residing.

thanks,
sam
