Hello,
Here is my issue. I have backtested my strategy, however I would like to test to determine the variance between backtested results and market replay of the actual day. However, My strategy being run from the Control Center failed to Trigger, by the same strategy, applied to a chart, triggered. Please see screen print.


Can you tell me why this is? I have the latest of version of Ninja.
If you need to see this in action for market replay, I have gotomypc, you can take a look for yourself.

On the Control Center you must press the "Start" button. When applying to a chart, this is done automatically for you.

Come on, give me credit for understanding how to run a strategy, if I can develop one. Please look again. 2 strategies are running, one is the chart, the other is not related to the chart. The third strategy is inactive.

Right, the 3rd strategy is inactive. On the right most column, there is a button that says "Start". Can you please press this button and let me know if it runs?

Thanks in advance.

I Figured out what is happening. When a strategy is running in market replay, if you scroll back and resume again, an error message is displayed. While the error message doesn't terminate the strategy, it still displays as if it is running(Green check mark), but it actually isn't. The chart strategy however doesn't suffer from this flaw, and continues to execute correctly. Hence the difference.

What error message are you referring to? Something in logs? A form popping up?
