Why did my Tradier paper order fill on a weekend?
Tradier's paper sandbox can mark a resting order as filled on a weekend, at a price no real market printed. Tradier's API reports it as a fill, so Nyria records it and the bot moves on to its exit. Judge Tradier paper results on regular weekday sessions only.
