After sitting at a light the car will not move when pressing the accelerator. Sometimes it will engage for a very short time then disengage & not move. Added transmission fluid since it was slightly low & problem seemed to go away, but then after about 50 feet of travel the car stopped accelerating again.

Sounds like you need a transmission specialist to diagnose-for me the transmission is slipping so bad-bring it in and have it further checked-
