Hi, when we run the baktesting of our Custom Study, while replaying it, it does mix the real time trading with the historical timeframe we start the bactesting with. but the backtest immediately takes a position on the real time market prices This definitively cannot possibly be true at all. The problem must be with the trading system itself. The real-time market data is not even available to the trading system. Also make sure that when you are starting the back test you are choosing the option to clear the existing trading data for the symbol and Trade Account of the chart. If you want to preserve that data, then you need to choose a different Trade Account before you start the replay: Auto Trade System Back Testing: Running Multiple Back Tests For Comparisons Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
