| Hello.   Today the spreadsheet autotrader system I built failed to enter a trade.  I checked the logs but there was no errors related to trade entry.  The only error I saw said something along the lines of:  sell exit could not be taken because no position exists.  This is the first time I've had any trouble with the system.  I would greatly appreciate if you could tell me how to avoid this in the future. Thank You, Michael Date Time Of Last Edit: 2018-02-02 01:50:23  |

| I forgot to mention that when I replayed the market, the trades that were skipped when live were taken during the replay. |

| Thank you so much for the reply.  I had accidentally tured off the send orders to trade service option in my study.  Human error. |
