Hello, for the past 5 trading days, I noticed that whenever I enter my first trade of the day, It automatically market exits my trade in less than a second. Every other trade after that works fine.

I have re-started my sierra chart and Noticed it still does it the next trading day.

Here is a picture of my trade activity log. It is the first trades.

Please guide me on what needs to be done. Thank you!
