Using your submitted Trade Activity Log we can easily tell what the reported Position Quantity was at this time: I got 2 targets in place, one at 113.61 and the other one at 113.65, with the entry at 113.23.
Last night both targets was reached without any problem but, this morning, when I opened up my platform I saw that I was still into the position with the main order, which was at 113.23. It is reported as 0 as we would expect. This can be easily verified by simply setting the Date Range to Display to the full date range which includes all of the order fills available for the particular Symbol and Trade Account. The result is on the Trade Statistics tab (Open Trades: Open Quantity). In the chart where you saw the nonzero Trade Position, was there a Order Fills Start Date-Time set in Chart >> Chart Settings? In my trading activity log, under trades section, if I set the range date just for today, the 7th of July, I can see one trade on USD/JPY (short) with Avg entry at 113.681 at 2:46:52 GMT with an entry quantity of 213 and an Avg exit price at 113.698 with an exit quantity of 142 and P/L of -24.72GBP without exit date time.
This is what we see in this case:Can you just tell me what is this order and what is happenning?

Technically, this really is impossible to change the reported Trade Position in a chart. We know how this is designed and we also have run several test to see if there is any rebuilding of the Trade List in a chart with this action, and there is not. So in the end, we really do not have any definite explanation for what you have experienced. We have added some additional logging. And we have instructed you to set an Order Fills Start Date in the chart you trade from. We recommend updating that at least every month.
