Re: Autotrading question

The first order (buy stp 2) is the entry order. The second order (buy stp 1) is the exit order in the opposite direction (reverse). That is why the amount of contracts is doubled-to close the current position and enter a desired position.

Re: Stop Loss

In the DOM window you can make a right click on the Stop loss exit strategy, click on Edit and specify the amount of loss. You can also auto attach it as exit strategy. In this case when you open a position, stop loss will be automatically attached at the specified level.

Re: RENKO chart - Problems with volume indicators

Hello, CrazyNasdaq.
For Renko charts Up or Down volume is equal to the amount of ticks used to form the brick.
If one tick is used to form multiple bricks, then the volume is filled for the last brick.
All ticks received after the current brick would be added to the next new brick.

The extended backtesting mode (Precise Strategy Back Testing) is also relevant for realtime/forward testing. In realtime the strategy will be calculated at the more realistic Ask and Bid prices, rather then on average Trade price.
