Hello, Since about 12:50 PM ET today (Oct 20, 2026), market orders I place in Trade Simulation Mode are not being filled. Market data is updating normally the whole time. Setup: - Sierra Chart version: 2915 - Account: Sim1, Trade Simulation Mode ON - Symbol: MGCZ26_FUT_CME, traded from the Trade DOM on chart #9 (chartbook MyMicroFutures.Cht) - Trade window config: 2TargetsWithBEStop.twconfig (attached orders disabled) What happens: - Earlier today, simulated market orders filled normally. The Trade Activity Log shows many "Trade simulation fill" entries, the last right after a Flatten at about 4142.4. - Every market order placed after that is accepted ("User order entry", order type Market) but never fills. I placed orders at about 4140.8, 4140.7, 4140.9 and 4139.9, and they stayed open until I cancelled them. - There are no rejections or error messages in the Trade Activity Log. What I've checked: - Bid/ask and last price on the DOM are updating, and the status bar shows SIM connected. - Trade Simulation Mode is on. - Global Profit/Loss Management: daily loss limit is disabled, and the account is up for the day. - Logged out and back in: same behavior. Can you tell me what would stop simulated market orders from filling while market data is flowing, and how to clear it? I can provide the Trade Activity Log for today if needed. Thank you, Michael Macrae |
