tick volume = 2
-
Good day, i need help, tick volume 2 means that a single candles ticks are read on the open price and close price.
my problem is that when i trail my stop loss, it will only be activated on the current candles close.
is there anyway in which i can avoid this, and have my trail stop filled ?

I don't think I understand, could you make an example project?
-
link text this is the rule of the ea.
when testing on every tick on the mt5 chart, it trades the way it should. however when tsting on every real tick, the trail stop when touched will only activate on the candle close, not the price at which it was set

@sirevans I do not see the problem, you put the trailing stop at 65 pips (without trailing start) and the trailing step at 65. I see that when the profit is 65 pips the stop loss moves to zero, for me it's right.
Surely there are differences regarding the real tick, precisely because they are real
-
I can't see any problem on the blocks either.
-
when testing on the strategy tester, using the everytick mode = when the current candle goes down it fills the trail stop and the trade is exited at the trail stop price.
however, when testing on the real ticks mode = when the current candle goes down to the trail stop level, the trail stop is pushed down and is only filled at the close of that current candle.
It's as if the trail stop is not there... am i making sense ? please help

@sirevans I'm not sure, check with this change

i've contacted the broker. and apparently according to their terms and conditions on that specific indices, they dont allow trail stops and stop losses
-
What a crappy broker!
