Hi John Today for the first time i noticed some weird Bug in execution on my (luckily) sim account. Attached are the Trade activity log and corresponding chart. The screenshot has all the bug related questions. The positions closed on their own and posted a huge profit on trade activity log(It should have been a huge loss). Besides questions in attached screenshots, I want to ask if there is a way to set loss limit of say $100 EVERY TIME I have an open position regardless of #of contracts and OCO/stops placed manually. Trade >> Global profit/loss management is a one time deal. I want to be flattened & cancelled (ALL orders) EVERY TIME loss exceeds $100 etc. I should be able to continue trading on same day and be flattened again & again if loss exceeds $100 .... and so on.... ( regardless of whether I have stop loss or not) Thank You! Date Time Of Last Edit: 2025-04-01 22:49:49

HI John Haven't heard from you. The same order execution bug occurred again today. In the attached screenshot, See the last 2 trades in red- wrong High price while open was never reached while position was open, Entry Date Time > Exit Date time, Global profit /loss was triggered but it gave the wrong executions as shown in attached screenshot. last 2 transactions loss is completely incorrect. (First 3 trades with profit of 4.4.1 ticks are correct). Looks like Global Profit/loss Management is messing something up....(just a wild guess...) This is concerning. Please let me know what to do? Thank you! |

Please go through the items at the following link: Trade Activity Log: Solving Inaccurate Trade Statistics for Charts Field Values -- The only way to have a "Per Trade" loss maximum would be to set a Stop that that value for that trade.
