Hello Sierra Chart Support, I’m encountering a persistent issue when developing and compiling a custom study (VectorAI) using ACSIL. The study compiles successfully from the ACS_Source directory and appears in the list of available studies. However, when added to a chart and run in Chart Replay mode: No trades are executed No trade activity is logged No markers are displayed The Trade Activity Log and Trade Orders windows remain blank Here’s what I’ve confirmed so far: Study compiles with no errors using Visual C++ release build sc.AllowOnlyOneTradePerBar and sc.MaintainTradeStatisticsAndTradesData are set to true All auto trading settings are enabled: Global, Chart, Simulation Mode, and Chart Trade Mode Chart Replay Mode is properly set up and active The chart displays the signal overlay (e.g., SMA) correctly Symbol used is ESM25 with a valid chartbook and data loaded Trade simulation settings are properly configured Tick size, quantity, and order structure are verified All Chart Settings (Trading tab) and Global Settings are correctly configured I’ve even tested different file names (e.g., MinimalPlaybackTest.cpp) with identical code, and sometimes it works once, then fails under the same setup. Could you help us determine why the compiled strategy fails to trigger trades or register any simulation activity during replay? Thank you for your help.

The code in VectorAITestPlayback.cpp does not compile, it has the same problem as the code in your other post - Custom Study Compilation Fails — The attached modified code compiles and works. I added notes into the code too show what is different. |
