Random large orders

[Zinger357]

I have a strategy that I'm testing on a Demo account. The logic is the strategy has to be flat, there is a variable for contract size (which is set to 1 currently). Periodically. the strategy will place a very large (for me) order of 11, 14, or 9 contracts. I even got a liquation email for the Demo account because of margin requirements. Most of the time it just buys/sells 1 as it should but once a day it will place the large order.

Hello Zinger357,

Enable TraceOrders and print the variable used for the quantity one line above the order method call.

Reproduce the behavior and save the output to a text file and attach this to your next post.
I'm happy to assist with analyzing the output to understand the behavior.

I stated variable but it's a user input not a variable. I'll enable prints and send the results. Thanks for your response.

I've included some prints and log. The contract size is a user input but it's never been set to anything but 1 NinjaScript Output 7_29_2024 5_29 PM.zip NinjaTrader Grid 2024-07-29 05-27 PM.zip
