When I upgraded from 2146 to 2148 today, I ran into a problem with the new version. After a bar-based backtest, when I open the Trade Activity Log, the Trade Service Log will display a series of error messages of the type: "File version is -1. Expected: 2. File not read and renamed". As a result, I would be unable to view the results of my back-test. Down-grading to 2146 fixes the problem. |

We do not see any problem like this. Provide several of the messages from the Trade Service Log and not a fragment of them. We need to see the entire messages.

Okay. (If there is a better way to do this, please let me know. This is literally my first day using the software, and I'm still learning how to use everything.) After running the back test, the Trade Service Log says: Auto-trade: Bar Backtest: MSFT Daily #11 | DefaultSpreadsheetSystemForTradingStudy | SellEntry | Bar start date-time: 2020-07-23 00:00:00.000 | SellEntry signal is ignored because a Short position exists or working order quantities indicate a potential Short position, and 'Multiple Entries in Same Direction' is not enabled. Position: -1. Position with all working orders: -1. Position with Market working orders: -1 | 2020-08-13 01:17:01.443

Now when I open the Trade Activity Log, the Trade Service Log displays several dozen lines like these: File version is -1. Expected: 2. File not read and renamed to C:\SierraChart\TradeActivityLogs\TradeActivityLog_2005-10-27_UTC.Sim1.simulated.data.2020-08-12 202010.corrupt | 2020-08-13 01:20:10.049 *

The message log has corresponding lines saying the files were successfully moved. Successfully moved C:\SierraChart\TradeActivityLogs\TradeActivityLog_2005-10-27_UTC.Sim1.simulated.data file to the folder C:\SierraChart\TradeActivityLogs\ | 2020-08-13 01:20:10.049
