Hi,

I used CTS.
I trade using market order + bracket orders attached (a stop + a limit for the take profit).
This morning my stop was executed at 19 pips but it was set up at +9p.

Later my stop was not executed but the price was just on the stop level for at least 5 seconds, and my stop was not filled !! Why ?
It was filled 2 pip higher !


Not happy the way my stop are filled ?

Please advise me what to do to better this situation ?

Is a limit stop better ?

If this is for non-simulated trading, we cannot give you any definite answer as to why you have experienced what you have experienced.

We could look at the Trade >> Trade Activity Log lines for one of these orders and see what we see.

Here are instructions to provide them:

Only provide the lines for one of the particular stop orders.

A Stop-Limit order will not be any better.
