Please see enclosed image which shows that There is Buy Entry study and that there are short positions created. You cannot come to this conclusion with that particular screenshot and the data it is showing. You must look at only the "Trade Activity" tab of the Trade Activity Log:Trade Activity Log: Viewing Historical Trade Activity And you have to look at the Order Action Source field. And make sure the starting Date-Time for the data on the Trade Activity Log is set to the start of the back test. Not earlier. You need to precisely set that. In regards to attached orders getting canceled, you need to look at the Trade Activity Log to find out the reason if indeed you are using Good till Canceled for those - a market order with a positive quantity is created on the last bar of the chart (while it should be created on the signal bar) From our perspective this is just too vague for us to understand. We need much more precise details and it is doubtful anything is wrong from our side.- attached order with a negative quantity creates a short position (while it should just flatten a long position, if it existed) Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
