Hello,

So, when I go from “simplified creation” to “creation by programming” I get this line that comes up in the “Stops & Targets”

I have my Stop, Trailing & take profit figures added in “simplified creation” the numbers below are just for this example.

Set Stop pLoss 10 pTrailing 15

SET Target pProfit 45

So, to fix this I do this:

Set Stop pLoss 10

Set Stop pTrailing 15

SET Target pProfit 45

the problem is that the good trading system that I developed in “simplified creation” is now making a loss and the equity curve is now showing losses

Thanks

Firstly, the line Set Stop pLoss 10 pTrailing 15 is not allowed, despite being used in the official documentation, as it contains two different kind of STOP on the same line.

Secondly, lines are read and executed sequentially, so when using Set Stop pLoss 10 then Set Stop pTrailing 15, be warned that the latter will override the former.
