what is the difference between "Immediately submit live working orders" and "Wait until flat before executing live"?

Hello Yevhenii,

Thanks for your post.

From the helpguide:

Wait until flat before executing live
When starting a NinjaScript strategy that relies on historical data for calculating its current positions and order states, it will wait until the strategy position has reached or crossed a flat position before executing any live orders. All trading done before this condition will be virtual, simulated trades.

Immediately submit live working historical orders
When starting a NinjaScript strategy that relies on historical data for calculating its current position and orders states, it will immediately submit live any working orders that reflect the current strategy's overall order state. It is IMPORTANT to understand that the position of the strategy reported in the Strategies tab may not reflect the actual account-based position reported in the Accounts tab at the time the strategy is started. In this scenario, it is highly recommend that the account position be synced to the strategy position.
