    Plot Executions not Matching Actual Trades

    I set plot executions to TextAndMarker on a chart that has a strategy attached to it.
    Whilst running under 'live' conditions the execution plots match my actual trades.
    However, when I go back later to view the chart after maybe refreshing it or reloading the strategy the execution plots do not match my trades. Instead the entries and exits display as they would appear if showing backtested results, i.e. based upon the close of a bar.

    Is this expected behaviour?

    FatCanary,

    When you reload your strategy you are then running a backtest through the now historical data. This would be expected since the executions being plotted now are no longer your real-time executions.

      That makes sense, thanks.

      Is it also the case that the execution plots are attached to the chart? If I remove the strategy the executions shown are still the backtested ones. The only way to view my actual live executions is to view them on a chart that has never had the strategy attached.

        FatCanary,

        When you remove your strategy you should be left with the execution markers of actual trades placed to your account. If these were done by the strategy then you would continue to see those even with the strategy removed.

          I think what I was doing was only disabling the strategy and not removing it.
          Now that I've removed it everything plots as expected.

          Thanks for the help Josh.
