Overnight automation not trading on Horses

[derekn]

Hi,

I have been testing out some strategies on Horses and for 2 nights something strange has happened.

No strategies get filled at all overnight, then when I wake up and goto the 1 click screen for the one that is going live, the strategies now work.

Is there a fail safe on strategies for horses not getting filled unless active on the 1 click screen?

Or is it just that the strategies simply didn't trade.

It just seems odd that now I am active they all work.

Thanks in advance.

Most likely your computer went to sleep

I got it - its because they are now settled of course! I can view the activity for previous markets via the log file right?

There is some info there by default.

depending on what markets you are trading in, I had a similar issue with not being able to see easily what my results/winners were in the mornings. I did find on the forums though a "Display the Winner" file for guardian that displays the winner in horse racing in a new column. Ive found this to be very helpful and quick to now identify if my trades were winners on by checking this with the log file. Takes secs now.
