SC2944 SC_Data trade simulation mode Using 'Spreadsheet System for Trading' Study. When the system is long or short with several positions, on SOME occasions, when the respective Buy/Sell Exit column flips to 1, NOT ALL positions are exited. The signal that I am using for the Buy/Sell Exit column is very volatile and may be triggered only for a very short time, e.g. shorter than the bar period (and maybe also shorter than the chart update interval (which I cannot prove)). My expectation is, that IF an Exit is triggered, then it would exit ALL positions, not just a subset. However, this obviously is not the case. Is this a bug or feature? |

A screenshot of the behavior, where the system needs several triggers to exit all positions.

A more dramatic screenshot. You can see where the first exit was triggered, but only for 1 position. Would have been a nice trade if ALL positions had exited. But the triggers only fired for 1 (or few) positions. The bulk was probably cancelled on a reversal. Would have to look at it in detail. |
