Thanks for the feedback.  The best way to contribute a patch is to
create a minimal strategy that allows us to reproduce the issue you
see, along with your patch.  That will allow us to verify the issue,
and evaluate your patch.

Once you have that, please open an issue on the TradeAnalytics tracker
on R-Forge:
https://r-forge.r-project.org/tracker/?group_id=316
