check what generated the close of position

 

Hello,

A novice question:

I do not know how to verify/check if a position was closed by "touching" of StopLoss price. I mean that the position was opened with a StopLoss>0; also I coded some other conditions to close the position. How can I distinguish that the position was closed by StopLoss "touching" and not by the others conditions.

Thanks in advance for suggestions!

You have to use OnTradeTransaction() event handler, see this topic.
