Hello, I am setting up a spreadsheet for auto trading and I have a very basic formula set up to take trades based on the attached orders in the trade window.(The quantity matches the order quantity on the spreadsheet) It takes the trades when the signal shows, but it also takes random trades with no signal and these trades have no attached orders? Can someone point me in the right direction please? Then As I continue the backtest it completely misses the next clear signal.Let me know if anyone resonates with my silliness. Thanks

Firstly, make sure you are only concurrently autotrading one symbol on one chart/sheet in one chartbook. You will likely witness spurious trade activity if: - you are concurrently autotrading the same symbol on another chart/sheet of the same spreadsheet - you are concurrently autotrading the same symbol in a different spreadsheet in the same chartbook - you are concurrently autotrading the same symbol in a different spreadsheet in another chartbook - you are concurrently autotrading the same-named spreadsheet in two chartbooks |

I did have another chart/sheet in my chartbook but have deleted it. But it was also a different symbol as well anyway. Thanks for the response.
