It is hard for us to understand exactly what is happening and exactly what you are doing from our position. However, this documentation section here explains how the Position Quantity is calculated and some unusual conditions you could encounter regarding simulated trading and the things that you might be doing to trigger those conditions: Trade Simulation: Trade Simulation Position Quantity Calculation Be sure to read it over and get a good understanding of how the Position Quantity is arrived at and then you should be able to figure out why you are seeing what you are. If you go to the Trade Activity Log and set the Trade Account to the simulated trading account you have set in the chart and select the Symbol of the chart and set the From Date going back to the earliest fill you know you have for that account and symbol, you can then go to the Trades tab and look at all of the fill matching and resulting position quantity and you can see exactly how it is arrived at. This should give you a good understanding of why you see what you do. There is nothing wrong on the Sierra Chart side in regards to this. There simply could not be. There is definitely things you are doing causing the behavior and is just a matter of gaining an understanding of why you see what you do. Could there be, or is there, a maximum size for the trade activity log? Is there a recommended maintenance procedure for this log? But thinking about your question, maybe there is a problem with your Sierra Chart's installation access to that folder. Maybe that folder is read-only or there are not write permissions to it. That could be the source of the problem. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.
