Dear SC support, for some reason PositionData structure contains and returns zero values after opening any long/short position in any of my scripts. Even when trying the sample script scsf_TradingExample from the tradingsystem.cpp:

  if (TradingAllowed && sc.CrossOver(Last, SimpMovAvgSubgraph) == CROSS_FROM_BOTTOM && sc.GetBarHasClosedStatus() == BHCS_BAR_HAS_CLOSED)
  {
    Result = (int)sc.BuyEntry(NewOrder);
    //Result = sc.BuyOrder(NewOrder);
    //If there has been a successful order entry, then draw an arrow at the low of the bar.
    if (Result > 0)
    {
      r_BuyEntryInternalOrderID = NewOrder.InternalOrderID;
      SCString InternalOrderIDNumberString;
      InternalOrderIDNumberString.Format("BuyEntry Internal Order ID: %d", r_BuyEntryInternalOrderID);
      sc.AddMessageToLog(InternalOrderIDNumberString, 0);

      BuyEntrySubgraph[sc.Index] = sc.Low[sc.Index];
    }
  }


  // When there is a long position AND the Last price is less than the price the Buy Entry was filled at minus Stop Value, OR there is a long position AND the Last price is greater than the price the Buy Entry was filled at plus the Target Value.
  else if (PositionData.PositionQuantity > 0
    && (LastTradePrice <= PositionData.AveragePrice - StopValue.GetFloat() ||
      LastTradePrice >= PositionData.AveragePrice + TargetValue.GetFloat()))
  {
    Result = (int)sc.BuyExit(NewOrder);

    //If there has been a successful order entry, then draw an arrow at the high of the bar.
    if (Result > 0)
    {
      BuyExitSubgraph[sc.Index] = sc.High[sc.Index];
    }
  }

which I copy and paste, the output is the same.
sc.MaintainTradeStatisticsAndTradesData set on true.

Please advise.
Thank you
