NT Break had to restart
At 2pm I was in a long position, via a strategy. NT had a break according to the log. The computer locked up and I had to turn off the power to restart it. When I logged in everything came back up and I was still in the position but the strategy was not running. So I just put in a stop to protect my position. What will happen if I restart the strategy? It is set to take up a position based on back testing. Will it just resume showing my position or will it trade a 2nd contract?

Hello larrylwill,
Unfortunately there is no simple answer here. It depends on your sync and strategy options outlined here:
The strategy is run again on historical data. In order for it to pick up the existing position / order, the virtual execution details when run against historical data must match exactly with the actual execution details originally submitted by the strategy. If you're running with CalculateOnBarClose = false, then it's highly unlikely these two will match.
It may be best to manage this position manually and then start the strategy again once it reaches a flat state.Ryan M.NinjaTrader Customer Service

It is calculate on bar close true and was in sync.
So what would have happened if I was not at home when it locked up. Would the strategy continue or would I still be in a long position while the market was crashing?
thank you.

well there are 2 of us watching it so I guess it it locks up my partner can log in on his and close it out.
What does it mean NT had a BREAK in the log? Was it NT went down or did the computer generate this?
