Hello.

I m jut trying to use a simple TS (please see below) on my IG demo account, with the idea that if it works I will switch it over onto the live one. However, I have been trying to backtest it and occasionally trades are not taken even though the signal is there. I am new at programming in PRT and I am not sure I have coded well. Can any one help me?

Apologies in advance is this is not the right place to post this

Thanks
