You need to look over the order fills you have for the Symbol and Trade Account and make sure the starting Date-Time of fills loaded into the chart is set properly.


Also how to manage the existing positions to avoid reversing the existing position when closing it (either manually or by a an existing resting order)?
You just need to make sure you enter an offsetting order with a quantity based on the true Position quantity for the particular Symbol and Trade Account.
