Hello Support,

i wish to share with you my daily experience as I am actually trading a SIM account with OneUpTrader and Sierra last version.
Each time I try to save a log from the Position tab, it is impossible.
I cannot choose neither a period of time.
If I want to analyse my trading, I cannot see at which price i opened, i closed, the efficiency of the entry and exit, ecc.
See attached please file named: sc_CLF8_081217_1c_290USD_Sierrachart_Positions-Tab_Save-Log

------------------------------------------------------

Besides, I placed another order on a chart place on the secondary instance of Sierrachart.

See file attached please: sc_CLF8_081217_1c_57.42_Sierrachart_Instance-2_No-Closed-Possible.jpg & mp4 files.

When I try to close the position, I get this message. Simulated Mode is NOT activated.

Rithmic Trading order update (Order reject). Info: Simulated Trade Account (Sim1) cannot be used when Trade Simulation Mode is disabled. Internal Order ID: 953823. Service Order ID: (none). Symbol: CLF8-NYMEX | 2017-12-08 15:25:30 *


Why my secondary instance consider my order as SIM or non existent so that i can not close them.

----------------------------------------------------

Please help me on this matter.

I would like to export in excel my daily trading journal.


----------------------------------------------------

Suggestion: it would be nice to allow people to choose the columns to be exported (as a profil), export them in CSV but also excel format with pre-enlarge sized columns to make even more efficient the reading of the datas.



Thanks for your kind help,

This is explained here:

It is supported to associate your own custom text with each order and then be able to filter those orders in the Trade Activity Log. This is done through the Text Tag:
Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Set >> Text Tag


Here are the instructions to open the Trade Window:
Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Opening Trade Window for Chart or Trade DOM

Here are instructions to export data from the Trade Activity Log:
