I use simulated mode and when a replay is started, automatically order fills and it appears into intraday chart, when a replay is stopped then orders appears on today's chart too, and I did not placed any of this orders. then I pressed flatten and cancel few times and I restarted my SC platform and this problem is back again. I don't know what can caused it, many times I used replay to practice my strategies and this never happened before. Could you help me resolve this problem please.

Kind Regards,
Krzysztof

You need to determine the origin of the orders. Refer to:
Trade Activity Log Analysis: Determining the Origin of a New/Modified Order

Maybe you are seeing prior order fills from the past. So you need to clear those when you start the replay at the prompt.

I have this exact same problem. Was going to post a new thread but I know how to use the search function and found this. Steps to recreate the problem:

1. Put chart in replay mode.
2. Put in a limit order. example Short 2 contracts.
3. As soon as the price in REPLAY mode hits the limit order and fills, it immediately flattens the trade at the last price of the LIVE market data (waaay off the chart to the right in the future)
4. Stop the replay.
5. When the chart reloads, you are now short 2 contracts at the market at the last price of live data.

This started out of nowhere. I was using replay just fine last weekend.

-Updated to latest version. Did not fix.
-Disconnected from data feed. Did not fix.
-Cleared all sim data. Did not fix.
-Tried multiple different days, didn't make a difference.

Trade activity log attached.

In this screenshot, I am playing a replay of the open of 6/11 and the open of 6/12. The actual real time is between 12:00 pm and 13:00 pm on 6/12 and every replay sim entry I take automatically fills at whatever the last price was at that time.

We apologize for the delay. We are finally able to reproduce this. It relates to using this option during a replay:
Chart Settings: Use as Trade Only Symbol (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Symbol menu)

Temporarily disable that option during a replay to resolve.

We are going to resolve this in the next release.
