This has happened a few times.

If I put a stop with last triggering at lets say 3000 and the price jumps from 3000.25 to 2999.75 without printing anything on 3000 the stop will sit there and not activate.

Also, Bid/Ask quantity attachments also have issues and sometimes don't activate, its been like this for a few months is there any fix coming? It works from the main trade panel but not with attachments.

This cannot be technically correct. As the comparison is the last trade price greater than or equal for buy orders and less than or equal to for sell orders.

Make sure this setting is set to 5000:
Data/Trade Service Settings: Number of Stored Time and Sales Records (Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings >> Common Settings >> Common Other Settings)

And make sure the Price Display Format in the chart has not been changed from the default:
Chart Settings: Price Display Format (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Symbol Settings menu)

And no one else has reported a problem like this.

The issue you are having with a Bid Ask Quantity Triggered stop is probably related to the same things.

But if you still have a problem let us know the symbol. Maybe there is some price comparison issue related to the number of decimal places used in the comparison.
