More Issues -

1. Trade Stats for Charts does not always show live held positions, even with Order Fill Calculated Position set in trading chart, it lists the wrong chart in Trade Stats for Charts. Sometimes it also shows a position on a different timeframe chart when actually flat. Example that just occured in live trading: Went Long GC through 5 Min chart, Trade Stats for Charts shows Flat. Closed GC Long, Trade Stats for Charts shows Position -1 on Weekly chart. Trading was not enabled on Weekly chart. Went to Weekly Chart, enabled Chart Trading, set to Order Fill Calculated Position, and restarted Sierra Chart. Trade Stats for Charts now shows Flat on Weekly chart, and Position -1 on Daily Chart. Repeated same process on Daily Chart, Trade Stats for Charts now shows Position -1 on 60min chart, etc. Sometimes completely restarting Sierra Charts fixes it, other times it just adds a complete random chart/DOM to the Trade Starts for Charts Window.

2. Order Fills Unmatched - Read the documentation, this is not due to disconnection, as it has been constantly connected, nor due to Date Range in Trade Activity Log. It has occurred when a position is held through the close, and it just occured now with a position opened and closed within the night session. Order Fill Calculated Position is set, and the fills are recorded correctly in the Trade Activity Tab, but not anywhere else. The fills are recorded as reversed, the Open fill is marked as Close, and the Close fill is marked as Open. In the Trade Activity Tab, they can be edited to reverse the fills and then they match, but lose their open PnL calcs, Runup, Drawdown, etc.

3. The Show Working Orders Only setting, on Orders and Positions, does not save and has to be set every time.
