@kris I’m not able to recreate the issue you are experiencing. Are these the steps you are doing?

  1. at about 10:41 PM ET the paper account is reset via the dashboard and the new balance set to $2800.
  2. what is the equity showing immediately after the account is reset? I see $2800.
  3. the next morning at about 7:20 ET the paper account shows $0 equity. I see $2800.

Are these the steps? Do you do anything between steps 2 and 3?

24

yes your spot on with that…

25

@kris I see you do a few other things after step 1 (which I didn’t)

  1. at about 10:41 PM ET the paper account is reset via the dashboard and the new balance set to $2800.
  2. the equity shows $2800? I see $2800.
  3. almost immediately API keys are generated.
  4. shortly after that an algo begins querying the account every several seconds with repeated calls to account, positions, orders.
  5. the next morning at about 7:20 ET the paper account shows $0 equity. I see $2800.
  6. the next morning about 8:50 ET the algo stops querying the account.
  7. the next morning about 8:57 ET the paper account is closed.

@kris Sorry about any confusion, I’m simply trying to get all the facts in an attempt to recreate the issue.
