There are two items we see in your log, although we do not know which may be directly related to the issue you are stating: Auto-trade: Replay 4.00X: MES-202503-CME-USD [CB][M] Delta 120v #1 | DefaultSpreadsheetSystemForTradingStudy | SellEntry | Bar start date-time: 2025-01-17 07:28:03.803 | SellEntry signal is ignored because a Short position exists or working order quantities indicate a potential Short position, and 'Multiple Entries in Same Direction' is not enabled. Position: -1. Position with all working orders: 0. Position with Market working orders: -1
Your spreadsheet is going from False to True in the "Sell Entry" cell. But you already have an existing short position for this symbol and the Spreadsheet System for Trading Input for "Allow Multiple Entries in the Same Direction" is set to "No". Therefore that "Sell Entry" signal is ignored. If you want to add to the existing position, you would need to set the Input for "Allow Multiple Entries in the Same Direction" to "Yes". Trade Order Error - The order quantity for the Parent is 1 and this is less than the total order quantity of 2 for the Attached Orders. Adjust the order quantities so the parent is greater or equal to the Attached Orders. *
There is a mismatch in the order quantities on the Trade Window. The Parent order has a quantity of 1, but the attached orders have a total quantity of 2. Therefore, the order was not submitted.
