Please, could you help me clarifying what is expected from NT on the following scenario?
I have a strategy that does what I want to (on backtesting, optimization and even on charts with hystorical data).
For first time, yesterday I put it to work for real (Live) from a Chart (not from the main screen).
What I got is:
- The bars on the chart were updated as the price evolved.
- However, at some point I saw that the algorithm should have entered a long position one hour before, but it hadn't.
- I reloaded the stragegy by hitting F5, and then yes... NT displayed the trade that my strategy was supposed to have launched.
Then my question is:
How is it that the order wasn't processed/handled while on Live?
Is it possible that, if you start a strategy from a Chart (15 days back), NT considers that the data feed has started at the moment you launched the strategy, instead of at 00:00:00 15 days ago?
This would produce different bars and explain somehow why the trade wasn't entered.
Thank you!
