Strategy monitor is issuing cover signals vs sell signals for my schwab accounts thus orders are not being issued.
As you can see from the strategy all the blocks are listed as sell and not cover blocks.

You guys and partial information. Let's dig it out of you...

Let's start here:
Does the Strategy trade short positions?

I'm not asking if you have any live short positions, just if the strategy has logic to trade short positions with Short/Cover signals.

No it is strictly a long position strategy. I restarted app and fixed it, but it's the second time it randomly started changing the blocked sell orders as cover orders.

The Signal Name is "Sell at", so this is doubly bizarre.
We're going to have to figure this one out somehow.

Is Live Positions enabled?
If it is, the next time that it happens, look at the Accounts tool and check if the Position is showing as a Long or Short position.

Judging from the order prices, the system certainly acted as if it was dealing with a short position.
Does the strategy have any custom blocks?

This keeps happening, the strategy ran well live for a couple months automatically without issue. Since update 99, something happened resulting it issuing two market sell orders, selling my current position and then going short with the other market order.

Did you do what I asked in Post #3?

The only way that can happen is if WealthLab thinks there's a short position in the account.
You can tell us if that's the case by looking at the Positions in the Accounts tool, and then the question becomes, "how did that happen?".

WealthLab is receiving/reading a short position from Schwab. Let's get a read on what's actually in your account.

What's really there? Look at your account on Schwab.com, or another Schwab app.
