Hi and thank you for this great software!

I might be doing something wrong here, but when I use the "Activate Stop Immediately" feature in the simulator, it appears to always exit the trades at the open price rather than the stop price that has been hit.

As an example, I created a long system that buys at the open of tomorrow with a trailing stop of 10% and activates stops immediately. The only defined rule is close > $9.00.

If the simulator buys at $10.00 and that is the day's high, then the price falls below $9.90, it seems to always exits the trade at a price of $10.00, but shouldn't it exit at a price of $9.90?

Thanks for any help

Hi,

Due to a recent change, the activate stops immediately is not working properly. We will fix that a.s.a.p and thank you for reporting this.
