Post From: Replay backtest missing trades

I am using spreadsheet for trading and have it set up so that if an alert fires then the account should go long 1 contract and if another alert fires then it goes short one contract. The alerts are clearly showing as fired since the bars are colored, the arrows denoting a trade are happening, but the position stays at 0 and no order is accounted for in the trade stats panel. Is this a known bug? I cannot continue to use sierra chart if I am getting unreliable backtesting data. The trades seem to fire at random. I use market orders for everything, trade at close of bar, yet have inconsistent backtests.
