Perhaps you are getting too close to the order open price.

For some reason I thought that if the price has already stepped FAR up, I could pull up the stop loss to the market by stepping over the opening price of the order... Is this not correct?

For some reason, I thought that if the price has already stepped up a long time ago, then I can pull up the stop loss to the market by stepping over the opening price of the order... Is this not correct?

You have placed a buy-limit order at 1.3111 with a stop at 1.3106. The current Ask price is 1.3121. The order is still pending. And further on, according to the logs, it remains so. And you, as I understand it, start to trawl its stop. It succeeds at 1.3107, 1.3108... and then... ...apparently there is a broker's restriction - freezevel.

Freeze level - prohibition to modify orders located near the market. It is forbidden to modify, delete or close positions, which are close to execution.

To determine this you need to do so (MQL5):

SymbolInfoInteger( _Symbol, SYMBOL_TRADE_FREEZE_LEVEL );

And you, under no circumstances, can place a SL higher than the price of a buy-limit/buy-stop order until a trade has opened on the order and a position has opened.

You have placed a buy-limit order at 1.3111 with a stop at 1.3106. The current Ask price is 1.3121. The order is still pending. And from here on in the logs, it stays that way.

The point is that the tester draws that a position is open for this order. it then closes it at the stop loss and calculates the income from the operation.

That's the thing: the tester draws that a position has been opened for this order. it then closes it at the stop loss and calculates the income from the operation.

Then please send us the code. We can guess for a long time.

The market is closed - this means that there is no quotation. Forex works 24 hours a day except Saturdays and Sundays. If the market is closed then no trading is possible.
