    As my demo is linked with my real account I don’t have to add fees for regular orders, but it does not count the stops as G SL.

     

    When you you launch a robot in the real world you have the option to choose to be in G SL but not in the backtest and that’s my question, how do we set it up in backtest

    The G stop has the same behavior as normal stoploss, in backtests stoploss price will always trigger at the exact same price than the price you set it at (because it doesn’t simulate the real market behavior). That’s what the G Stop is supposed to do, but in real trading, and it will also cost you an additional fee.

    To simulate this fee in backtest, just manually add a markup on your spread or add order fee..
