MultiCharts: Trading Software for Automated Trading and Backtesting

Hi all,

I wanted to see if anyone else has this problem:

I want my strategy to read the broker position, in the event I want to change something and it turns off SA. I found that the From_Broker_To_Strategy_MP_Synchronizer strategy is part of the pre-existing strategies and I looked into using it.

The problem I found while testing live, was when I would manually submit any sized short order ( -1, -2, -10, ect..) this strategy would force my custom strategy and broker position to be 1 long, regardless of contracts used.

It works how I would like if I submit a long order; My custom strategy will be matched to the broker, but not when going short.

Any advice?

Hello RobBoss,

Which version of MultiCharts do you use?
What is your chart resolution?
Have you modified the code of the prebuilt signal?

I am using version 9 and have also tried version 10.
My chart is CL running at 1 second, one week of time per chart.
I have not modified the code that came with the software. I have looked through it and it all makes sense to me and I would think it works. It has not proven to do so.

Hello RobBoss,

Please come to our live chat to demonstrate this behavior remotely.

We have analyzed the issue in the Live Chat, the Synchronizer is working fine with Short positions, when applied without the custom code of the user, that resulted the position reverse.
