Hello Team,

This is a 2 second chart of NQ. I have a study called SE1 that triggers a short correctly.

However, as soon as the oco target is hit, the system makes another entry in the same direction without firing SE1 again. I have confirmed the criteria for the SE1 trigger is false on the 2 bars shown in the image and I added a spreadsheet to have a closer look. The spreadsheet confirms... no valid SE1 trigger on any subsequent bars.

This was resolved by sorting the Studies To Graph based on ID, and by re-ordering the decisions that make up the trigger signal.
