I have a Spreadsheet for Trading with a Buy entry that lets the preset in the Trade Window run the order and a Sell entry that lets the preset in the Trade Window run the order. There are no Buy exit or Sell exit entries in the spreadsheet, it's all off the Trade Window settings. I have Support Reversals set to Yes and the cell in the spreadsheet shows 1 so it's theoretically seeing the command. However, when I have an auto trade running and it executes, for example, a Buy order and sets the parameters per the Trade Window, the trade runs and then a Sell order shows up as the market moves against the Buy trade. The Sell trade arrow appears showing that it knows there is now a Sell order BUT it does not do the Reversal of the existing Buy order. I have watched this several times and can reproduce it in simulated trading. These orders work perfectly when there is no Reversal but I could really use Reversal working. What am I missing? From reading the instructions all that should be needed to make Support Reversals happen is set that to YES, which it is, but it isn't happening here. Version 2287 64 bit I have attached a couple of screen captures to show the trade and the settings for suppot reversals. I hope those suitable for review. thank you.

Thank you Tom, I see where I missed a couple of settings on the page. Running now and will watch to see.
