1382 Release notes say Fills are improved; I installed it this morning. There may be more fills than a $J$8 positions test calls for? I've only tried automated trading via spreadsheet for about 2 weeks.. so I can't say this was not a problem before (or with my expression, or whether there is one), but my AND conditions to stop further Exit expressions evaluation in formulas--- (which I first added today on Exit formulas that were working otherwise) does not seem to work. I followed your instructions at http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_SystemsAlerts.php#UsingManualOrAttachedOrdersExits Steps To Create a Trading System for Automated Trading ΒΆ 27, test for open position at $J$8. In front of my L-col. Exit formula, to suppress exits when no position, I have =AND( $J$8>0, K3=0,L4=0, ... etc. then several OR conditions to exit upon. On the correct chart sheet#, I get true's in L-col. each few rows. Since almost no Buys/Positions exist in K, that can't be correct. I used the Detail debug: $J$8 which shows 1-True when no Buy Entries are anywhere. Strange! AutoTrade Study settings are set YES for: Reset on new bar, Allow Multiple entries same dir, Allow entry w/ working order, Support Reversals, Allow Opposite Entry w/ Opposing Position. This was run on "Replay", All Charts, Accurate Trading System Back Test Mode, set to 1-second Processing, with 1 second storage setting. Positions limit- 2 I will try again in a bit via the Auto Trade System Back Test from the Trade window to see if it acts similarly. |
