Hi, Been using Sierrachart for few years now, but new to the autotrade feature. While backtesting a system of crossing the middle band of VWAP I've run into an error. I want only one open trade running at a time, but once my limit or stop is hit, it opens multiple trades at a time in the direction of the original trade. (E.g. Price crosses above middle VWAP, buy position active, stop loss (limit) hit, 12 more buy positions open) Order Quantity: 1 Allow Multiple Entries in Same Direction: 0 Allow Entry With Working Order: 0 Maximum Position Allowed: 1 Buy Entry =CROSSFROMBELOW(ID0.SG4@3:ID0.SG4@4, ID5.SG1@3:ID5.SG1@4) Sell Entry =CROSSFROMABOVE(ID0.SG4@3:ID0.SG4@4, ID5.SG1@3:ID5.SG1@4) Using target and stop setting on Trade Window rather than L3 and N3, although I have tried to use those instead and the error still occured. Thanks, G. Hill |

So you end up with a Position Quantity of more than one? Double check the settings you mention.
