On another matter- word from others in the community is there is/may be a problem w/autotrading a script (using strategy monitor, I think)?

My script when backtested involves only mkt orders and only 2-4/trades per day, mostly at open 2nd bar- do you see a problem w/this? Someone from Fidelity I thought seem to think it may be a Reuters issue?

Whats' your take on this?

An intermittent problem exists with Staging orders. At least one contributing factor was fixed in 5.5, but there's at least one more factor that remains to be found and fixed. Consequently, when Auto-Trading, you must monitor your Alerts closely. If they're not Auto-Staged/Place, you'll need to Place the orders manually (by right-clicking the Alert...)
