Post From: Replay problems with Position Quantity

I've been having serious problems with signals being delayed while doing replays with 3 linked charts. The problem appears to be related to the Spreadsheet Trading system reporting of position quantity, not matching up with what's actually happening during replay. Specifically I have a reversal trade set to enter only if there was a position up to 3 bars ago, but on the current bar there isn't. When replaying a single chart, the position quantity shows that it went to zero long before the stop was ever hit (more than 10 ticks away), and the arrow showing the trade has exited happens on that same bar nearly 20 ticks away from the stop. Replaying with linked charts, the position quantity goes to zero 4 bars before the chart trade was actually exited. The position display arrow shows the exit at the correct moment after hitting the stop. I don't know exactly what's going on here, but at the moment I can certainly not trust the position quantity to be reported correctly at any given bar after a trade has exited. I also tried this with the Trading: Position Quantity study but that had its own set of problems (similar but not identical to this post). Has anyone ever used position quantity in Sierra Chart and gotten good results? If so, how? Date Time Of Last Edit: 2019-11-22 02:13:37
