I'm using the DefaultSpreadsheetSystemForTrading study linked to Sheet4.

K3 = TRUE
J26 = 1
J71 = "M"
Maximum Position Allowed = 5
Send Orders to Trade Service = Yes
Trade Window is open and set to SIM1
Trade Simulation Mode is ON

Replay is in Accurate Trading System Back Test Mode

The spreadsheet is updating (=J41 works), and arrows appear on the chart, but no trades are executed. Can you help me identify why orders aren't being sent to Sim 1?

why orders aren't being sent to Sim 1?

These settings are mutually exclusive; they cannot both be Yes/On nor No/Off:
Send Orders to Trade Service = Yes
Trade Simulation Mode is ON

To use Sim 1, set:
Send Orders to Trade Service = No
Trade Simulation Mode is ON
