Under MB Trading simulation, why do I get a message saying I have an unmanaged position in an instrument when I log on ? I have tried the various techniques referred to in the dialog warning boxes that also open and tell me I have this unmanaged strategy order. They refer to a certain web page on your site for this sort of thing.
What gives with this ? Why does it put me into an instrument I was flat and out of before I exited the previous session ? Sorry to keep posting questions into this forumn, but for the life of me, in 25 years of running computers and 10 years of using financial software, for whatever reason, I find this program's power is exceeded only by its non-intuitive complexity. I just don't get why this program does some of the things that it does, and while I want to subscribe to it, it scares the daylights out of me to try to run it "hot" on my account when I can't figure out, within reason, why it does the things it does. The last thing I want to do is open my MB Trading account and all of a sudden be in a trade, for real, that I never executed.
To the best of my knowledge I have followed the warnings/cures under "In Flight Executions". No matter what I do it insists on making me short 1 ES when I log on. I then have to go into the "orders" tab and fix it, but it always shows up again the next time I log back in, even if I fix it, and exit without making any trades.
In short, how do I "flush" this out once and for all, so that when I leave flat I log back in flat ?
Thanks for any help.
