Post From: Spreadhseet for trading works in SIM replay but not in Live

I have had another rare occurance of this issue in live trading. I would like to engage in paid help per your last post. Though I am not sure what you hope to find in the TAL as the required Scale-In instructions are missing.

Here is the problem

- the spreadsheet opened a long position of 1 lot with attached target and stop loss
- when the trade moved X ticks into profit, the spreadsheet correctly added another 1 lot to the position, doubling it to 2 lots.
- the attached take profit and stop loss orders were not updated to 2 lots with Scale-In, they incorrectly remained at 1 lot. See image attached "chart" - note quantities do not match after Scale-In

I have looked at the TAL for a session where Scale-In worked correctly. See attached "TAL_correct", these items in green are MISSING from the TAL for the session where the attached orders did not increase in quantity correctly. In the session where it didn't work, SC never sent the instruction for Scale-In and increase quantity of child orders - I had to increase the attached order quantity manually.

This is live trading. If I replay this session in SIM, everything works correctly - the attached orders have quantity increased to match the Scale-In. It only fails in live trading, and not very frequently, it is intermittent.

How do I proceed in solving the serious issue with paid help?
