phantom long

In sim or realtime I have a phantom long pop up on every chart, if I have TRADE--> Chart trade mode on.

I even opened a virgin new chart, but it is still there as well.

It says [SIM]Trade: 1@ (constantly changing number) DPL: 0.0P
In live trading mode, it is the same thing but the number stays fixed at a certain amount, not changing.

I read through other's similar problem and worked on the answers but not working yet.

Can I get rid of this phantom long?

That is not a trade, it is the "Chart Trade Mode Box". It tells you the quantity you have currently selected along with the current price your pointer is set to. It also gives you the Daily P/L, although that can be removed.

Refer to item #3 at the following link along with the image there:
