The problem with Reversals is that if the reversal condition has not been met, there is no logging of that case and the reason for that, because there are many conditions to support a reversal. We can only refer you to the documentation here for Support Reversals:

Are you using Attached Orders with your trading system?

Thanks for the answer!

I think the problem is with the attached orders.
Looks like, when i used attached orders the system doesn´t allow reversals.

Any idea ? do i need to have a diferent setup to use attached orders?

Regards

Attached Orders do add a another layer of complexity to this.

Although this should allow you to use attached orders:

Cancel All Orders on Entries and Reversals (read-only): TRUE

In the next release, we are going to be adding logging to indicate when a reversal signal is ignored when there is already an opposing Trade Position relative to the new order side.
