Hi,

I have developed a trading system in acsil, and put an alert next to "sc.BuyEntry()" so I will get an alert whenever the system enters a position.
Now whenever I add the study to a chart, I get an alert for each time the study would use "sc.BuyEntry()" in the chart history.
And I am not sure what will happen once I go live- will it send the orders for past prices?

So I know that sierra runs the study for each candle in the chart, but is it really going to send the buy order in live trading?
And if so, is there a way to avoid it via the configurations?

Thanks, Eyal.

This is explained in this section here:

Before triggering an alert, check the return value of "sc.BuyEntry()" to see if an order was sent.
