I tried update portfolio, but that does nothing. After all, the portfolio has no active trades in it. Do I have to wait until market hours to do this to make everything happy? If so, then I miss the opportunity to place Monday's trades unless I delay placing until after the open. Any suggestions?

This is what you should see in Port Sim. First, the Port Sim test period is fixed, so the end date does not include any trades further than March 2021 unless you modify it to include a test period beyond March 2021. Secondly, the High Flyers market state submits trades using a trade plan that can have long term trades, & they will only close out when the trade plan's stops are triggered. Third, the trades you get in Port Sim will usually be slightly different depending on whether or not AutoTrade is used. Without AutoTrade the trades shown in the columns are just taken directly from Port Sim’s open position report. With AutoTrade the trades incorporate your Portfolio account balance. So depending on your Portfolio or broker balance, the trades may differ from Port Sim. For example, Port Sim may show 7 trades, but your Portfolio or broker balance may not have enough money to trade them, so maybe only 5 are traded instead. | |||

Depending on your Port Sim test period that looks like a Port Sim bug. But if you run AutoTrade it will give you the trades you're looking for. You can run AutoTrade now if you want & you will get the trades. I know it's after market open though, so the entries will be a little later, but to get AutoTrade to enter them automatically to your Portfolio or broker, you would need to switch the AutoTrade setting from "Forming" to "New". Since it's still Monday that would work, but if anyone does that just remember to switch the AutoTrade signal setting AND the run time back to normal. | |||

**NEVER MIND** I went ahead and ran the To Do List using "Current list" and the "Run scan(s) dynamically" check boxes. After that completed, I was able to select both "All lists in the Profile" and the "Run scan(s) dynamically" check boxes in the To Do List. Not sure why the first time wouldn't allow it but it appears to be working now. [Edited by TonyJ on 4/21/2021 8:08 AM] | |||

Because you need to right-click inside your scan & click "Set as Dynamic Scan" before the ToDo Dynamic setting will become active with All Lists selected. But the way you did it works too. |
