View Full Version : Use Last Price for Auto Trail Checkbox

"Use last price for auto trail and auto breakeven


When enabled, the last trade price is used to trigger auto trail or auto breakeven functions. When disabled, the bid is used for long positions, the ask is used for short positions."




When deselected, I read this to mean that when long and the market is moving up, when the bid price equals the target, then the trailing stop is triggered, and vice versa. The opposite seems to be happening. Am I reading this wrong?

Thanks.

Hello,

You are correct in that the bid is used for a long position and vice versa when the property is deselected. Ensure that you have the property deselected in Tools/Options/Strategies.

If it is deselected and you believe the feature is still not functioning properly, then please submit an e-mail from the Control Center window: Help-->Mail to Support.
