I have run the Spreadsheet System for Trading Test Procedure you have build. It went wrong from point 17: "17. An order will have been submitted and the Trade Position will be established. You can confirm this by looking at cell J5. It will contain a nonzero value." In my case, cell J5 did not contain a nonzero value, it actually contained a zero. Afterwards I have checked the Trade Service Log. Below you find a copy. Apparently there is something wrong with the maximum order quantity. I find that however a bit strange as SC created this Test Procedure, I suppose including the default settings that come with it, such as order quantity. Could you advice what I do wrong and what I have to change? Thank you kindly in advance. --copy--> Trade Activity Log file read result: 1151 records inserted. 0 records filtered. | 2015-05-21 18:53:32 Trade Activity Log file date-time limits: Sim record date-time limit is 2015-02-10 00:00:00.

We will fix this. In our initial testing, it did work properly but when we increased the quantity to 10,000 we did not increase the maximum allowed position quantity.
