I've been running a backtest of 10yrs and everything was going fine until a little over 8yrs into the test. I am running a spreedsheet trading system that disables trading for the day once the number of daily trades >=2. For some reason the daily trades have been stuck at 2 along with the DPL... Is there anyway to fix this without restarting the back testing?

This may relate to a change in the newest versions. We will have this resolved in the next release coming out today assuming the cause is what we think it is.

when backtesting, out of no where a trade will happen where it opens the trade during the backtest, let's say in 2018 and then closes the position at today's date.... Why is this?
