Hi there,

I have some hotkeys assigned to move SL and TP up and down when I trade.
When I work on demo account execution is instant - SL and TP changes levels with no delay.
When I work on real account I have delays when trying to move SL/TP with a hotkey. Additionally sometimes hapens that after I press the button once to move SL it moves few (2-3) levels pushing me directly into the current price levels and knocking out the position.

You have to check the Trade Activity Log to see what is happening:

Are there multiple order modifications being submitted? If so, it is the key repeat functionality of the operating system causing that.
