I’m having an issue with an ACSIL automated trading strategy. The strategy (ICTTradingStrategyV8) executes trades correctly in simulation mode (Sim1) with 1 contract, but when updated to 2 contracts (ICTTradingStrategyV10), no trades execute despite same exact trading logic. Details: Environment: Sierra Chart Sim1, replaying March 10–April 1, 2025, at 1500x speed (Accurate Back Test Mode), MNQM25-CME symbol. V8 (1 contract): Works as expected. V10 (2 contracts): Signals (Buy=1 or Short=1) appear in logs, but no trades execute. Trade Window set to 2 contracts with Attached Orders (Target: 100 ticks, Qty 2; Stop: 300 ticks, Qty 2). Troubleshooting: Confirmed signals match V8, Trade Simulation Mode is on, no position limits set, no rejection messages in logs (V8 code doesn’t log failures). Request: Can you help identify why V10 isn’t executing trades? Are there simulation mode restrictions or Trade Window settings I’m missing? How can I log order rejections in ACSIL? I’ve attached ICTTradingStrategyV8.cpp and ICTTradingStrategyV10.cpp for reference. |

I think I found the culprit. Needed to add these: sc.SupportAttachedOrdersForTrading = true; sc.CancelAllWorkingOrdersOnExit = true; sc.MaximumPositionAllowed = 10; sc.AllowEntryWithWorkingOrders = true; sc.AllowOnlyOneTradePerBar = false; |
