Hey, Hope all is well guys. I had some major issue with paper trade today. Stock ticker IRON It took me out of the trad early for a -233$ loss when my hard stop was for $50 and the in and out difference was like 5 ticks. This is completely far off. Entered again and it bought and sold in a spit second while price went in my favor for another 230 loss when my stop was set for 50$ loss and was never even hit? What is this about? Thanks for any help, |

You need to look at your Trade Activity Log to determine why the orders were closed out unexpectedly. In particular, the OrderActionSource will have the information within the orders. Refer to the following: Trade Activity Log Analysis: Determining the Origin of a New/Modified Order With regards to the currency values, you would need to look at the number of ticks involved in the trade and look at your "Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Currency Value per Tick" and see if everything is set correctly and showing the correct values.
