Post From: Synchronized Internal Position Quantity not working properly

Hi,
Today I experienced a problem with my trading spreadsheet. A buy entry was triggered and sent the order to IB for trade. IB executed the trade correctly, but the Sierra Chart spreadsheet had problems updating the position quantity. It would initially correctly update, then suddenly revert back to zero, causing the spreadsheet to execute another trade and so on. This went on until capital was used up and IB stopped trades from going through. The funny thing is that, the spreadsheet was sending orders 1 share at a time. I have attached the trading log for support to have a look. I have never had any issues before with the trading spreadsheet and current algorithm. I also have the most updated version of Sierra Chart. Please have a look and address a fix.

Regards,

Chris
