Re: Problem with optimize order flow [SOLVED]
Hello,
When Optimize Order Flow box is checked it is expected that instead of 2 stop orders MC places only 1 stop order. This is how Optimize Order Flow designed.
As for multiple order replacement within the bar when the box is checked, we will test this case.

If slippage is set to >0 in Strategy Properties, then it will affect both backtesting and auto-trading (limit orders are not affected by slippage since MC 8.5). And TJ is right, there are multiple factors affecting order execution in backtesting.
