Post From: Simulated trading - Missed execution and position size miscalculation

Hi support,

I was doing some back testing today using chart replay and simulated trading. At one point I had a long position, and put a limit order for a partial sell above the current price. After playing forward a few bars the price went up past the limit price, however the order did not trigger. the price continued to trade above the sell limit order but it did not execute. So I jumped back a few bars (<<), then forward again (>>), and this time it executed, however it reset my position size to zero rather than subtracting the actual amount of the limit order. See attached pictures. Just wanted to report this to you guys, no further action required as far as I am concerned. thanks.
