As the title says, for some reason the setting isnt saving. I want it to stay off, but it always checks back on.

If you have the option for "Trade >> Chart Trade Mode On" enabled, then the option for "Show Orders and Positions" is also always on. The "Show Orders and Positions" can only be toggled on/off if the option for "Chart Trade Mode On" is disabled. Refer to the following:
Trade Menu: Show Orders And Position (Trade menu)

Yes, I currently have both settings off, but the "show positions" still turns on when I place a trade on my other chart which has "chart trade" enabled.

What you are stating should not be occurring. The only reason we can think of that would create this situation would be a custom study that is turning on the option for "Show Orders and Positions". Are you using any custom studies? Also, try starting Sierra Chart in "Safe Mode" and see if the problem persists in that case. Refer to the following:

We are curious, is this in Simulation Mode, with our Trading Evaluator, or when live trading?

If you enter an order in the Trade Window, the option for showing orders and positions will be enabled for that associated chart. That cannot be changed.
