Post From: Spreadsheet System for Trading sending Entry and Exit orders without proper Signal

Hello. Thank you for your reply.

After thoroughly reviewing both webpages:

Auto Trade System Back Testing: Differences Between Back Testing and Real-Time Auto Trade System Evaluation, and
Automated Trading Management: Troubleshooting Automated Trading System Behavior

I cannot determine why the System is doing this. That I am using copies of the same “.Cht” and “.scss” files and the same formulas yet am receiving difference results between Live and Replay, leads me to believe this is not an issue with code, design, formulas, logic or debugging.


The issue happened again yesterday:
I have two Instances of Sierra Chart running, Instance 1 in Live Mode and Instance 2 in Simulation Mode. Both use the same “.Cht” and “.scss” file and both have the same formulas in the spreadsheet. The Chart Update Interval for both is set to “500”.

The issue is that in Real Time both the Live and Simulated spreadsheets entered a position at 2023-03-23 12:01:05:451180 according to the Trade Activity Log and at 2023-03-23 12:01:06 and according to the Alert Log. When I Replay Instance 2 in Simulation Mode (using Replay, “Calculate At Every Tick/ Trade (High CPU usage)”, Speed “1”) from 2023-03-23 11:59:59 to 2023-03-23 12:01:10, a position is not entered, and a position should not have been entered according to the formulas in the spreadsheet.


I would like to have Telephone and Interactive Remote Assistance Support to resolve the issue.

Thank you kindly.
