The Trade Window showed that I was short 300.
In the case of simulated trading when there is a nonzero Position quantity there must be an order fill that currently exists to show that.

If at this time the position quantity is 0 because you flattened a short 300 Position, that means there must be a -300 and +300 fills that exist or some other combination unless both of them have been cleared.

Refer to these two sections:
http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/TradeActivityLog.php#ViewingHistoricalTradeActivity
http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/TradeActivityLog.php#TradeStatsOpenQuantityFieldCalculation (This is important to read to understand how the position quantity is arrived at)

If you need help we will need to get the Trade Activity Log file from you. Here are instructions:
