I am testing Z12 against an Oanda demo account.
Unfortunately, due to apparent bugs in Oanda plugin, broker stops are sometimes set incorrectly, causing order placement to fail.

In my own strategies I work around this by setting StopFactor to zero programmatically.
However I cannot do this with Z12 as I do not have the source code.

Is there a way to disable broker stops in the INI file?
Alternatively, can broker stops be fixed in the Oanda plugin?
I would be happy to help in that effort, though I would need source code to the Oanda plugin.

Setting a new stop loss of an open trade with exitLong/exitShort required that the trade already had a stop loss; it did not work for trades with no stop (fixed in V1.52.4). Workaround: enter the trade with a distant stop when you want to modify the stop loss afterwards with exitLong/exitShort." http://zorro-trader.com/manual/en/new.htm Last edited by Finstratech; 01/06/17 16:58.
