Topic: error SL

Good afternoon.

Last version 1.2.1

Strategy has Tp = 1000 pips (5 digits) and SL - 500pips. But SL puts all 50pips instead of 500. TP works truly.

thanks

Re: error SL

I think that is because its 5 digits,  just add an extra 0

The logic is incorrect. TP for 4 digits it is equal 100pips and for 5 digits = 1000. Precisely so should be and for SL.

Clearly that in that specific case corrections of an error the worker, but an error it is necessary to correct your council for the future release.

Re: error SL

Has increased SL to 5000. In МТ stop 50pips (5digits) is all the same exposed

Good morning

Last version 1.2.1

i have the same problem with FST

EUR/USD (5 digits)

Stop Loss 250 pips / Take Profit 250 pips

TP is right, but the value of SL remains constant even i change its value.
it is certainly a bug in this fabulous application.

Best regards

Thank you

Re: error SL

You have Permanent SL = 250 pips as well as Trailing Stop = 100 pips in your strategy.
The Trailing Stop sets initial SL 100 pips below (or above) the entry price. Since this is closer to the position entry than the Permanent SL = 250 pips, FST ignores the Permanent SL. simply there is no way the price to reach the Permanent SL level without triggering the initial value of the Trailing Stop.

FSB / FST allays set the nearest SL level and ignores the other.
