Hi,

I notice when I'm backtesting my strategy I get a lot of mismatched fills.

I allready delete the data and re download it. I also make sure that I only test 1 studie at the moment.

Very unusual to have this during a back test.

When you start the back test you are prompted to clear the Trade Data. Make sure you press Yes to clear this data.

Also, are you stopping and going back in time and resuming the back test. This is going to lead to problems and potentially unmatched fills.

What we discovered that this problem can be related to is having Chart >> Chart Settings >> Advanced Settings >> Order Fills Start-Date Time being set. Clear that Date-Time.
