Description

Since the version 9 build 10173 this issue has been in place. its very simple to reproduce. I use ChangeMarketPosition in conjunction with PlaceMarketOrder to balance and adjust strategy positions. ChangeMarketPosition displays and calculates ENTRY commands correctly but does not calculate exits correctly. What it does is display an order and internally adjust the signal so that the instructed quantity was processed - however the displayed quantity is always "0" and generates #NAN errors in the Backtest report so that the report is entirely unusable.

Steps to reproduce this issue

ChangeMarketPosition(1,C,"Entry");
if marketposition = 1 then ChangeMarketPosition(-1,C,"Exit");
