@siempre Use ID1for your indicators for entry. The same would apply for exists otherwise your optimization results are not valid. Example: You open a trade at a given price .. let's assume 1.00000. Your SL would be 0.99900.
When you use open price now, you would not consider that a candle low between open trade and some time in future reached below 0.99900 as you only care for open price. So in tester at some time later your trade will hit TP as it didn't get the SL that would have occured on on tick basis.

This is your second thread asking for the same question. Could you please focus on just one same thread?

@trader-philipps if I put in ID 1, I can optimize by open candle?
