Please, come to our live chat to demonstrate the issue. My theory is that it is incorrect symbol mapping.

Try one more time using an Exit Master Strategy with 2 or 3 steps... ;-)

Andrew, the symbol mapping is correct since the trade is actually open at the broker and on the Order and Position Tracker... 
But I must specify that the bug is with the use of Master Strategy : in this case, it is not possible to move the exits...

Stratman, i would not have asked you to come to live chat for no reason, Sir. The fact that a position could be opened doesn't actually prove that symbol mapping is indeed correct. What you have described may be caused by it too.
Besides, in the description of the issue i can see that you are talking about profit target and stop loss. Did you mean Master Strategy only or Brackets Strategy?

Andrew, this issue concerns Master Strategy and not Brackets Strategy.
The current symbol mapping allows me to open and close trades that are properly executed.
The problem has already been seen and confirmed by your team during a live chat session on my machine and reproduced on your own machine with your fxcm account.
I just reported this issue so that your teams keep in mind that this problem still exists and prohibits the use of Master Strategy.

Andrew, I will come to our live chat.
The last time, to ascertain this problem, you had to use your own fxcm demo account.
It is still on my MC64-v8 beta 2 
I do not remember if this problem had been shown on the beta 1 or beta 2, but it is certain that it was in all cases on MC64 v8.
