Hi, for the last few days I am seeing someone else trading on my charts. It happens when I change the order fills start date to the current day and change the time. I can see active positions on all of my charts and also closed positions. I have tried restarting Sierra, reconnecting the feed, and changing the order start times but nothing is working. This is happening on my Sim1 account.

Any trades that are showing for a Simulation Mode account have to be generated on the local computer. Therefore, you have something that is causing these trades to occur. Are you using an automated trading system of some kind that could have generated these trades?

Hi, no automated trading. Only happens when I change the day/time to current day and adjust time of trades/order fills to exclude raise trades. And because it's current day it can't be sim trades I've done in the past. Additionally, there are live positions that I can see. I am able to close them but they are re opened. Definitely someone else doing it

This is not making any sense.

Therefore, with SC Data - All Services selected, then all orders and order fills that you see can only originate from within that installation of Sierra Chart. There is no other possibility.

Although any historical order activity, received when using a Trading service, will still exist in the Trade Activity Log.

You can determine the origin of orders:
