All Trades designated as "Shorts" instead of "Longs" in the Capital Gains Report

When I run the "Capital Gains Report," all my trades (3,261 of them) show as "shorts" (in the Short/Long column).  I don't have margin so is this a mistake in the software?

I used the API Import feature to import all my trades from various exchanges (GDAX, Coinbase, Binance, Bittrex, Bitfinex, and Poloniex plus my wallet information for all my coins).

Has anyone else noticed this?

Also, when someone pays me through Coinbase (I have a Coinbase acc't and they have a Coinbase account), this transaction just shows as a "deposit."  I usually just send this to my GDAX account, and
add it to my trading BTC.  But all these transactions show up with no cost basis (because there is no trade associated with them), so the cointracking.info software gives me an "Warning" message in the capital gains report that there is "No suitable purchase for this sale" and assumes a $0 USD cost basis.  I have tried adding trades, but the message still persists.
