Post From: Trades recorded incorrectly on Trade Evaluator - Delayed Account

I encountered an issue on a Trade Evaluator Delayed account where the opening and closing of trades are not matching up correctly. I have used both v. 2040 and 2044 today.

The problem appears to be related to the first several entries in the Fill log.

The Trade Activity Fill log has these entries as the first four items:
Time: 04:39:09.004 - InternalOrderID: 5517 - Sell
Time: 04:41:53.002 - InternalOrderID: 5514 - Buy (InternalOrderID lower than prior entry)
Time: 06:16:28.009 - InternalOrderID: 5521 - Buy
Time: 06:19:27.002 - InternalOrderID: 5523 - Sell
Time: 07:04:28.009 - InternalOrderID: 5524 - Sell

and continues with the pattern of two Buys followed by 2 Sells.

The Trades log does not have an entry for the first fill at 04:39:09.004, a Sell. It begins with the second fill:

Long - Entry: 04:41:53.002 BP - Exit: 06:19:27.002 (Entry is Fill #2, exit is Fill #4)
Long - Entry: 06:16:28.009 - Exit: 07:04:28.009 EP (Entry is Fill #3, exit is fill #5)

It appears that, perhaps due to the order of the first and second fills, the opening buys and closing sells are being mismatched. They show incorrectly on the chart as well, with the connecting lines from the entries to the exits skipping over the fills in between. The first fill, the isolated Sell, is not shown on the chart either.

I was busy this morning and I did at one point roll back from version 2044 to 2040, and then roll forward again back to 2044. I'm sorry, but I don't remember exactly when, so I don't know if this could have been connected to the order getting out of step or not.

If this is just a matter of the data having gotten out of sequence for some reason not due to an application issue, I would be fine if the data could just be deleted. These were just test trades anyway.

If you need more information, please let me know.

Thanks.

Bob.
