Hi,
I connect to my demo account with InteractiveBrokers, open a 5 min forex chart and add there four signals: Channel_Breakout_LE, Channel_Trailing_LX, Channel_Breakout_SE and Channel_Trailing_SX. Only the entry signals (LE and SE) appear on the chart. When I do exactly the same thing on a chart with data from MCFX - all four signals appear. What can be a problem?
I'm using latest MC.NET.
Exit signals don't appear on InteractiveBrokers charts

Hello argos_888,
The signals you are using place stop orders. In backtesting Stop orders are dependent from the chart price. As the signals generate the orders with different prices - one signal or the other can get filled first. All next orders are dependent from the previous order. Please also keep in mind that the data provided by two data vendors can be different. Here is How Scripts Work
