not sure what the conclusion from LIFO /FIFO fill matching problem in REPLAY is but the thread is locked...

i'm also looking for instruction like post #1 so sierra is LIFO, not FIFO.

i have enabled
1) Chart >> Chart Settings >> Advanced Settings 3 >> Open Position Average Price = Use Last In First Out Fill Matching for Open Position Average Price (Trading Information Windows: How Average Price for Positions Is Calculated and Used)

2) Global Settings >> Chart Trade Settings. Enable the option Order Fills >> Display Entry/Exit Connecting Lines

after this, i tested. but as the connecting lines confirmed, it's still using FIFO, not LIFO

not sure if 3 & 4 are needed to make LIFO work... but here is what i tried (with 1 & 2 still enabled):

3) Trade >> Open Trade Window for Chart >> Menu/M button and make sure there is a checkmark by Support Scale Out (Attached Orders: Scaling Out)

4) not sure if this helps at all with LIFO because the last order should be the first out regardless if it's the nearest order or furthest order ... but i have Global Settings >> General Trade Settings >> Scale Out setting = nearest order (Attached Orders: Scaling Out)

after this, i tested. but as the connecting lines confirmed, it's still using FIFO, not LIFO

please let us know how to configure sierra to LIFO

thanks for the help!
