Hello again in fact I just noticed myself
that it's the replay that's not working.
because just the replay and it does crazy ..
nothing has to do with the spreadsheets it is the replay which does not work.
sorry to disturb you but without replay I am lost.
and I no longer see where to save the study?
thanks in advance

First go through the step-by-step instructions here:

And we also see you are using CQG data. This could be a data related issue. You should use the Sierra Chart provided data feeds. Refer to:

Hello I don't think this is from CQG. because there has never been a problem before.
What's going on with the replay?
It's simple, I have no spreadsheet, I have auto trading close,
and when I shoot the replay it buys and sells all by itself without any consistency.
As if I had several spreadsheets open.
This is clearly not normal.
In advance thank you cordially

Just to make sure we are understanding what you are stating, we are going to repeat and ask some questions to make sure we have each item correct:
- You are running a replay. How many charts are in the replay? What kind of replay are you running?
- You do not have any Spreadsheet System for Trading studies on the chart(s) that are being replayed?
- You have the option for Trade >> Auto Trading Enabled - Chart or Trade >> Auto Trading Enabled - Global unchecked?
- As you run the replay, you are getting Buy and Sell signals as if from an Auto Trading program of some kind?
- Do you have any other trading related studies on the chart(s)?

Hello I don't think this is from CQG. because there has never been a problem before
CQG historical data has changed. See the information below.


And if you need help with automated trading, then refer to:
Automated Trading Management: Troubleshooting Automated Trading System Behavior

----
We are no longer as of December 28, 2020 providing the Sierra Chart provided historical data service for CQG or Interactive Brokers users. For more information, refer to this Support Board thread:
Jan 1, 2021 Changes to Historical Data: Interactive Brokers, CQG

Also refer to this post for steps that you need to do now:
Jan 1, 2021 Changes to Historical Data: Interactive Brokers, CQG | Post: 245144

The solution to this problem is to use the Denali Exchange Data Feed for CME and EUREX (Upcoming in January 2021) data. Step-by-step instructions are here:
Denali Exchange Data Feed: *Setup Instructions: CME/CBOT/NYMEX/COMEX Exchanges*

The first calendar month of this data feed is free. Let us know if you need help with the set up and we will help you through all of the steps.

In the case of CQG you will then need to contact your broker and cancel CME and EUREX exchange fees through your CQG account so you do not pay exchange fees twice. You definitively do not have to pay any market data exchange fees through your brokerage account to CQG. This is not required.

For other exchanges (ICE, HKFE) you need to use the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed:
Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed

As an alternative to CQG, we recommend using the Sierra Chart Order Routing Service:
Sierra Chart / Trading Technologies Futures Order Routing Service

In regards to using CQG provided historical data, we definitely do not recommend using that. It has an additional cost of 25 USD per month. The data delivery is slow and inefficient and causes Sierra Chart to freeze during the processing of it. Only 5 days of tick data is supported from CQG. And only current futures contracts are provided.

Whereas with Sierra Chart provided data feeds, you will have access to 10+ years of reliable high-speed delivered tick by tick data. Once again we do not advise using CQG historical data and it will not work well with Sierra Chart. And we also provide no technical help or support for any CQG provided historical data or real-time data.

Just to make sure we are understanding what you are stating, we are going to repeat and ask some questions to make sure we have each item correct:
- You are running a replay. How many charts are in the replay?
just one chart
What kind of replay are you running?
standart
- You do not have any Spreadsheet System for Trading studies on the chart(s) that are being replayed?
no spreadsheet nowhere
- You have the option for Trade >> Auto Trading Enabled - Chart or Trade >> Auto Trading Enabled - Global unchecked?everything is unchecked, i'm not stupid.
- As you run the replay, you are getting Buy and Sell signals as if from an Auto Trading program of some kind?
Unfortunately yes.
This is the problem
- Do you have any other trading related studies on the chart(s)?
I don't understand, what do you mean by the other study related to trading?
I am very sorry to have this problem. is to disturb you.
but I admit that without the replay to do many tests
I feel blocked
Thank you very much in advance for your availability.
cordially

- Do you have any other trading related studies on the chart(s)?
I don't understand, what do you mean by the other study related to trading?
Autotrading studies for example

Try "Safe Mode" Some third-party programmers control the function of automatic trading in their studies (inside study via code). That may not be your case. Just an idea of what I would first try for the confirmation that the main Sierrachart application really creates your problem.
Sierra Chart - Software Login Instructions: Using Safe Mode


And


maybe I would try to manually delete the trade activity. It is possible that you do not see new trades, but those previously created are displayed.
