I've used this many times and all of a sudden it is not working. I am getting signals for entries, I see the signals from the spreadsheet study on the chart, and the orders are not being placed. I have auto trading global and chart enabled. The spreadsheets are enabled. Usually if I click on the trade service log it will tell me why a signal was not taken and then I can adjust accordingly but there is no mention of missed signals on the TSL, even though the signal shows up on the chart. Please advise on what might be the issue. Thanks.

It's fixed. I had to reload the study again. Thx.

Next time, set this Input to Yes to see what the problem is:
Spreadsheet Systems, Alerts and Automated Trading: Enhanced Auto Trade Signal Related Logging

Sometimes we hear about this kind of issue, and in almost all cases it is something straightforward. But we just want to make sure there is nothing unexpected/unusual going on which we might need to look into further.

I am having the same condition. I have activated the advanced logging and it says " Buy Entry(Signal ignored because current Alert Condition Formula is FALSE Cell: L3. However, the formula is in fact TRUE" per the Detail for that cell?
Any thoughts would be great. many thanks

However, the formula is in fact TRUE" per the Detail for that cell?

What matters is whether the cell itself is displaying 1. Not what is displayed through the Details button.

If based upon the formula evaluation detail for a particular cell, the cell should be returning 1, then attach that particular Spreadsheet file. Here are instructions

And tell us the exact cell you are referring to.
