Post From: Spreadsheet System for Trading, K3=1 but didn’t send BuyEntry

Hi John,

I’ve just noticed that the Live System again did not send the Buy Entry Order when K3=1 but when I switch the System to Simulation Mode and changed “Send Orders To Trade Service” from “Yes” to “No” the System does send it.

In Simulation Mode, K3 changes from =0 to =1 at 2023-02-14 at 06:50:00, it sends the Buy Entry Order, which is filled right away and also sends the Buy Exit Order. The Buy Entry and Buy Exit are both sent at the prices represented in J22 an J23 respectively.

One thing I did notice is that the formula in K3 is supposed to change to “1” when U3=45.12 and in the Simulation Spreadsheet at 06:50:00 U3=45.120000000000005, even though when the condition in U3 is “positive” it’s supposed to return “45.12”. This difference between “45.120000000000005” and “45.12” did not affect the Simulation Mode System's ability to send the order, maybe it does when Live? The Number Format is U3 is set to “Default”.

For the Trade Service Log entries, there is nothing at 06:50:00. I changed Sierra Chart to Simulation Mode at 2023-02-14 at 07:20:36.1116, then changed “Send Orders To Trade Service” from “Yes” to “No”, and then started a replay at 06:49:58 and “Jumped” by 1 Unit increments until 06:50:00 when K3=1. Here is the Trade Service Log:

Can you tell me why the Live System didn’t send the Buy Entry Order (and subsequently Buy Exit Order) and why the Simulation System did? Thank you very much.
