I am using a long only trading system and if I run a backtest without checking of the "Interest and Dividends" under preferences the "Performance" report indeed shows no short trades....however.... if I check off apply interest rates under "Interest and Dividends" and only imput a rate for univested cash leaving the margin rate at 0....the backtest then shows short trades in the perforance results???

Any idea why?

Nevermind...I see that it is the cash earnings and not short trades
