Hi,

I cannot make yesterday's problematic trade appear on the "Trade Activity" section. But it does appear, when I select "Trade Activity Log" and then the "Trade" tab:

Symbol  Trade Type  Entry DateTime  Exit DateTime  Avg Entry Price  Avg Exit Price  Entry Quantity  Exit Quantity  Max Open Quantity  Profit/Loss  Cum P/L  Runup  Drawdown  Max Open Profit  Max Open Loss  Entry Efficiency  Exit Efficiency  Total Efficiency  Commission  
CL-201309-NYMEX  Long  2013-07-29 08:48:26  2013-07-29 08:48:27  105.11  105.09  1  1  1  -20.00  20.00  10.00  -20.00  10.00  -20.00  33.33%  0.00%  -66.67%  0.00  

Today, this problem occurred again. This trade does not appear on the "Trade Activity Log" at all, but it does appear on the "Orders and Positions" table of Sierra Chart:

Entry Time  Last Activity Time  Symbol  Status  Internal Order ID  Order Type  Buy/Sell  Open/Close  Order Quantity  Price  Price 2  Filled Quantity  Average Fill Price  Parent Internal Order ID  Time in Force  Good Till DateTime  Service Order ID  Trade Account  Link ID  OCO ID  LastOrderActionSource  
2013-07-30 11:21:34  2013-07-30 11:22:41  CL-201309-NYMEX  Filled  8382  Stop  Buy  Close  1  102.94  0.00  1  103.02  8380  Good till Canceled  Good till Canceled  1008  UXXXXX  0  8381  IB order status update  
2013-07-30 11:21:34  2013-07-30 11:22:40  CL-201309-NYMEX  Filled  8380  Limit  Sell  Open  1  102.99  0.00  1  102.99  0  Day  Day  1006  UXXXXX  8380  0  IB order status update  


The stop loss order was supposed to move to 102.94 on ten-tick profit. Instead, it was raised to 102.94, when price was at 103.02, resulting in a three-tick loss.

Both trades did appear on the "Audit Trail" file of Interactive Brokers. In both cases, the stop loss orders were moved, one or two seconds after execution of the parent orders. Is it possible to show yesterday's trades on the "Orders and Positions" table ?
