In using the Sim trading, when I hit BUY, the targets come up Red and say S, rather than Green and B.
Also, if I hit Sell, the targets come up Green and say B, rather than Red and S.
In doing so, the targets come up negative each time they sell.
Did it Flip? How do I fix it? Please advise.

Nothing has changed in this regard.

When you open a Buy position, then your Targets and Stops will be the opposite type (i.e. Sell) in order to close out that position. By default, a Sell Order line is going to be red and a Buy Order line is going to be green.

If the coloring is not what you are wanting, then you can change the colors. Refer to the following and the 8 items below it:
