I got filled with a stop-limit order, but the Chart Stats shows as if it is still open. It states that there is two open positions when current there is only one . It also states "2 (not acurate)". Also it says I am trading from chart # 20, but I do not have a Chart 20. Please advise...

O.K. Chart #20 is resolved. It does not show up on the Study Summary> I suppose because Chart #20 is the DOM for the chart I am trading off. Everything else stands.

Does not work, and furthermore why is this not self healing? Old broker from the 80's. I just want to trade, not have to fix things between Sierra Charts and your connections, my being "Advantage". I have been with you for ten years and never had a real issue till now.

Your method of fixing requires info I don't have since it is Missing. Isn't this info suppose to be coming from your servers. Correct if I am wrong.

When it comes to the Trade Statistics in the chart, and associated Profit and Loss values, you may have to do some manual intervention and that the starting Date-Time for the fills:

And if there any missing fills, follow the instructions here:

Are you holding any overnight long-term positions?

Yes, I was holding overnight positions, until I got stopped out during the evening sessions. I then noticed the next day, that I was closed out on my charts, but the charts stats was still showing an open position. I called my Broker Advantage to confirm that I was flat and they confirmed I was flat and Sierra Charts Web Trading also showed I was flat.

So I dived into the Trading documentation and have resolved this. I never had an issue in the past, so maybe this was a wake up and I am more knowledgeable. The weird thing was in Charts Stats, the missing fill and associated ghost open position referred to Chart #15. This chart is the daily historical chart for micro ES, and on that chart I do not have any trading modes on. I trade off either the intraday day chart #28 for the micro ES or the associated DOM #20.

So as to better understand the flow chart. The order sent from my Sierra Charts goes to your servers via Teton Denali. And then when the order is activated goes direct to CME. So where does the missing fill come from that causes these problems ?
