Hi, why if I set my stop to breakeven manually, I take a loss? Instead of closing it with 1 or 2 ticks in profit, it give me a loss.
It seems like if the average calculated position is wrong.
Is it possible that I changed some settings that is giving me this problem? Thank you in advance.

There is a "Move to BE Offset" setting in the Trade Window. Make sure this is set to 0 to get exactly to the BE point, otherwise it may move it above or below this level depending on how this is set. Refer to the information here:
