When running a forward test in live sim, at some point, the Trade System Based on Alert Condition study will not trigger trades, and the purple/green dots no longer show up on the chart. I have to select Chart -> Recalculate to get the dots to show up.

Please see attached image. The first yellow arrow has a purple dot, while the second one doesn't, and the first arrow will trigger a trade, while the second one won't. If I select Recalculate, then the second yellow arrow will have a purple dot.

I'm not. This is live, in simulation mode.
