Spurious Trade Signals

I have been experimenting with auto trading using the Spreadsheet System for Trading. When trying simple crossovers using CROSSFROMBELOW and CROSSFROMABOVE, I receive spurious signals that are not indicated on the chart but are sent to the trade service. When I try to reproduce these signals in replay mode, they do not occur; only the legitimate signals are shown and taken.

I have the “Signal Only On Bar Close” and “Strict Signal On Bar Close Evaluation” settings enabled. Am I missing another key setting, or is this normal behavior?

This is the relevant documentation for this:

Something like this potentially can be normal, based upon the formulas you are using. It really is impossible for us to say from our perspective since we do not know what the formulas are or are analyzing what is happening and that is not within the scope of our support.
