Topic: Martingale bug

Hi guys,

i tried to develop and use couple of martingale strategies and i found out that FST sometimes skip 1 position.
E.G. start lot 0.01, martingale set to 3, so it should open these positions
0.01
0.03
0.09
0.27
0.81
2.43

But it skipped 0.81 and opened 0.27 and 2.43. I am attaching part of log below:

Re: Martingale bug

sometimes it also open the same size of position
like 0.09 end by stop loss
it should open 0.27
but it opens 0.09 again.
