Hi, My position was flattened today immediately after I put on a trade at 2300 CST. I set the Global profit/loss management to close out any positions at 1509:50 CST, so I'm not sure why it's closing my position. Thanks for any help. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2017-01-10 05:05:26

We have to think about this and implement completely safe logic for this. Had you made any changes to the Flatten Positions at Set Time >> Flatten Time setting around when this happened?

I did not. I had previous issues with the same sort of thing, but everything was fine after I updated (a prior support thread). I also traded last night without an issue, though it was after midnight and before the 1509 close, so I'm not sure if that matters. Also, I started a second instance of SC (pointed to a different broker), with the same parameters set, and it did not close out the trade. In the second instance of SC, I made no trades yesterday after midnight (while I did so in the first instance of SC, as described above). Date Time Of Last Edit: 2017-01-10 06:55:27

OK, we are working on this now. We are re-implementing the logic of this to make sure something that this cannot possibly happen. Not sure why did happen though.
