I'm using version 1002 and it crashes immediately when I try to open the trade activity log after completing an Automate System Replay Backtest.

Could you post that file again. We saved it and then deleted it off of the board but it appears to be empty. However, it might have something to do with our Sierra Chart settings.

First go to Global Settings >> General Trade Settings. Make sure you enable the option to save Replay/Back Test Trade Activity and make sure the number of days of simulated trading activity is set high enough.

Run the back test, exit from Sierra Chart and post the file.

Of course, I ran it again and it worked fine.

Just in case maybe you can still see something wrong, I'll post the file again. But, maybe it was a temporary fluke?

Actually, disregard that last post. Just to be double sure, did a more extensive backtest and it crashed again.

Not sure if you'll get anything out of it, but I'll post the one I ran before it crashed.

The Trade Activity Log does have a lot of data in it, but we did not notice any kind of abnormal shutdown. We did our testing on Windows 7.

At the top left of the Trade Activity Log select Fills instead of All Activity or Orders. This will reduce the amount of data displayed. See if that makes a difference.
