Post From: Spreadsheet System for Trading - trouble triggering trade

I'm having trouble consistently triggering trades in the Spreadsheet System for Trading.
In this case I'm in Trade Simulation Mode.

The trade log shows this as the reason the order signal was ignored:

Spreadsheet System - Replay 10.0X: YM-201706-ECBOT [CBV] 20 Min #2 | Spreadsheet: AutoTrading | Buy Entry | Signal ignored because current Alert Condition is TRUE | Bar start date-time: 2017-04-27 08:40:00 | 2017-04-27 12:24:05

I have set no alerts that I'm aware of outside of any that might be generated by the Spreadsheet System for Trading, and I'm not sure where to look to figure out what alert is the issue. I've also gone through the troubleshooting info posted on the Sierra Chart Support website.

I've verified the following:

Auto Trading Enabled - Checked
Reset Condition on New Bar - No
Signal Only Once Per Bar - Yes
Send Orders to Trade Service - No
Signal Only on Bar Close - No for all settings
Enhanced System Signal Related Logging - Yes

Historical data has completed downloading.

In the Spreadsheet System For Trading Worksheet
Buy Entry - Cell K3 = 1
Disable Auto Trading - J28 = 0

I'm sure I'm missing something, but can't figure out what it might be. Any help would be appreciated.
