I would advise you to log the values in the conditional statements.
Perhaps the thresholds of the spreads are too narrow. What if you replace <= for >= ?

What about sgdSpread and usdSpread?
self.Log(f'sgdSpread and usdSpread: {sgdSpread and usdSpread}') self.Log(f'price >= self.usdsgdEMA.Current.Value * (1 + tolerance): {price >= self.usdsgdEMA.Current.Value * (1 + tolerance)}') self.Log(f'not (self.Portfolio["NZDSGD"].IsShort and self.Portfolio["NZDUSD"].IsLong): {not (self.Portfolio["NZDSGD"].IsShort and self.Portfolio["NZDUSD"].IsLong)}') self.Log(f'price <= self.usdsgdEMA.Current.Value * (1 - tolerance): {price <= self.usdsgdEMA.Current.Value * (1 - tolerance)}') self.Log(f'not (self.Portfolio["NZDSGD"].IsLong and self.Portfolio["NZDUSD"].IsShort): {not (self.Portfolio["NZDSGD"].IsLong and self.Portfolio["NZDUSD"].IsShort)}')
