Hi there,

This is trading the ES which sits at 1794.25 right now and under automated spreadsheet trading
I lost my last sheet recently and when I created a new one I get the wrong entry and exit prices, the code is supposed to have it enter at market.
Please see sceenshot, I am afraid that when I go live it will do the same thing.

Please advise of a solution for this

In what way are the prices wrong?


One thing that we see is that the values are multiplied by 100.

still didn't change the existing activity log. Should it update the previous entries?

No. Those will be as they were.

Something is not right here. Perform a Full Reset of the symbol settings as explained here:
http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/doc_GlobalSymbolSettings.php#UpdateSettings

After that open a new chart or Trade DOM.

only the trades tab is like that, trade activity log is not
I am just wondering what price gets sent to execute?

Or am I left with resetting up my charts again from scratch?

To make sure you have the proper settings in a chart , go to that chart and select Chart >> Chart Settings >> Apply Global Symbol Settings.

If the order price is showing correctly on the confirmation window and also in Trade >> Trade Orders Positions >> Orders, then the trading service will get them correctly.

Not sure why the Trades tab does not have the correct prices when the Trade Activity tab does. This makes no sense.
