Entry functions don't close opposites

[Fernand0]

Hi, thanks for your time.

I have this problem, which, i didn't have a couple of days ago..

https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/en-us/

A few key points to keep in mind:
• Entry() methods will reverse the position automatically. For example if you are in a 1 contract long position and now call EnterShort() -> you will see 2 executions, one to close the prior long position and the other to get you into the desired 1 contract short position.

EnterShort and EnterLong used to close the opposite position if it was any. Now that doesn't happen (no idea why it changed), and output errors...

Thanks for your post and welcome to the NinjaTrader forums.

The first error message indicators that your sim101 account does not have sufficient margin to place the needed orders which resulted in the 2nd error message.

We advise that you reset the Simulation account to resolve this item.

I increased the amount of the account to 1m

I did it before this thread, i did it again just in case, and then i did it several times.
I even use the "Reload NinjaScript" and "Reload Alll Historical Data".

It keeps happening
Is there any option that could "compromise" this behaviour?

Thanks for the fast reply Paul!

Thanks for your time.

hum? did something wrong?

BTW.: it seems that if you don't have the double of your Intraday Margin, it just send the errors.. then i had to change the "Bars required to trade" to 1... because sometimes in the middle of nowhere that error happens
But i can't execute a strategy with $900 on an Instruments that requires $500 on Intraday Margin..
