There are many reasons why an autotrader might not take a trade. Here are three easy ones:

-Trade >> Auto Trading Enabled must be checked.
-'Send Orders to Trade Service' in the spreadsheet study settings must be set to No.
-J28 must be FALSE or blank.

All that is good. Its a mystery? Could it be the symbol?

Error: Unable to flatten or reverse because position does not exist for the symbol...
