I have a question regarding the automated spreadsheet trading.

What happens when I am buying a position and after that there is a power outage, computer crash, internet break down etc.? Or what happens with my buy entry conditions are met during one of those incidents? Is there a SC server on which the (open) orders are saved?

We see you are using Rithmic. We recommend you change to the Sierra Chart order routing service so you have server managed OCO and bracket orders:
Sierra Chart / Trading Technologies Futures Order Routing Service

And you need to use Attached Orders:
Attached Orders

Make sure you use both a Target and Stop order. You must specify both to take advantage of server-side bracket orders.

Also any new automated trading orders which occur when Sierra Chart is not connected to the trading server, will not get processed.
