Post From: Simulated Order not being filled

Hi, I hope it is something simple I am missing here. :) I am testing something using the Spreadsheet for trading in SIM (live not replay) and I have it set up so that when a trade is triggered in the buy entry/sell entry column it places a limit order based on a value I had manually inputted. For this exact example in the EURJPY - When my trade trigger went off I had a sell order trigger a limit sell order at 141.85 with a limit price of 3 extra ticks. (This is set up so that there is not a lot of slippage and chasing of orders.) So after the trade trigger, in the spreadsheet, cell j24 shows the "Limit or Cell stop Price - Sell Entry" of 141.835 and the trade activity log shows there is a simulated order accepted at that price, and its open and when having the chart trade mode on, i can see the limit order at the correct price. So far, so good..... However - in this case the market moved away too far and the trade was not filled as it did not chase. I left it on hoping it would retrace. When it did retrace, the order was still not filled even though the price traded through the sell level? the trade activity log and the chart trade mode was still showing the limit order as still being live....but nothing triggered? Is their something simple i am missing here I would have thought the order would still have been triggered when the price moved back above the order (maybe a setting or input in the Study settings for the spreadsheet)? I attach a screen shot if that helps....its not very clear. Using v1074 thanks. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2014-01-14 15:12:55
