Post From: Problems importing fills into trade activity log

Hello, I have just updated to the latest preversion (1847) as I saw that you made some updates to the trade activity log. My problem however existed also in the earlier version I had installed. I am generating with a macro a text file which contains data of fills from another trading execution system. I am aware that all hidden signs like tabs, enter, etc. in the text file must be present and I do pay attention to that. These fills I try then to import into Sierra Charts trade activity log. Sometimes this works, and sometimes not. Although in order to have a chance that import works I always have to export first some fills from Sierra, and then copy and paste the data which was generated with my macro into the file exported from Sierra, thereby replacing the data which was in the file exported from Sierra. Then I save that file. When I try to import this text file, as I said sometimes it works (fills apear in trade activity log), sometimes there is no success (fills do not appear in trade activity log). However the Trade Service Log always states that it has read the simulated fills. (I try to import all fills into a SIM2 account which I have created for this external fill data.) following a copy of the trade service log of a failed attempt: Trade Activity Log: File read result: 1240 records inserted. 113 fill records inserted. 0 records filtered. | 2018-11-27 09:35:20 Trade Activity Log: File date-time limits: Sim records date-time limit is 2018-11-12 00:00:00. Non-sim records date-time limit is 2018-08-26 00:00:00. Non-sim fill record date-time limit is 2017-11-27 00:00:00. | 2018-11-27 09:35:20 Read 0 non-simulated fills, and 6 simulated fills from the file C:\SierraChart\TradeActivityLogs\TradeActivityLogExport_2018-11-16 - 2.txt | 2018-11-27 09:36:00 * Attached you also find the file which I tried to import while generating the above trade service log. I believe that the text file is properly formated, as the same formating sometimes works and sometimes it does not work. Therefore I believe that this import problem is caused somehow by Sierra Chart. I would appreciate your help on this problem. Thank you and kind regards, Peter |
