Post From: Auto Trade Spreadsheet - Signal Only Once Per Bar

The Sell Exit is becoming True at some point within the timeframe of the bar, prior to the Sell Entry becoming True. Therefore, after you have Entered your position, it is not possible to Exit within the same bar period due to setting of Signal Only Once Per Bar.

It sounds like you would be fine by not setting Signal Only Once per Bar. Otherwise, you would need to find a way to not trigger the Sell Exit until after the Sell Entry has occurred (such as looking at the Position Quantity in the formula).
