Stop Loss doesn't work any more - to lose is to lose. - page 2

 
Aleksey Vyazmikin:

Virtual ones are more dangerous - slippage, disconnection. In this case, everything is handed over to the broker for execution. It turns out that they had a server failure - so far I can't think of any other reason.

More dangerous if there is a disconnection - yes. Slippage, in my experience, is less - both for take and stop. This is by SI/RTS.

How do you check? My feeling is that they're closing fast.

Well, unless you do a test...

By the way, what is your ping?

I can only check it by practical means. The ping is 3-5 ms for different points.

Slippage depends on the TS, of course. Among other things.

You mean to the broker? I have a ping of 30-32 ms.

Yes, to the broker.
 
Dmitriy Skub:
Yes, before the broker.

What kind of provider is this?

2COM.

There is one nuance - I switch stops/takes at the flipper price. Practice has shown that this is optimal for liquid instruments.

What do you mean by "switching" - assessing the situation? Then positive slippage is unlikely?

Renat posted the scripts once.
But be careful with the real account, first study how the scripts work and adjust them if necessary.
I don't remember exactly how the scripts work, I watched them a long time ago, and if they send a market, you can change them to limit ones, so you don't have to enter the trades.
But in my opinion the scripts do send limits, I just don't remember exactly, that's why I stressed it.

Just my opinion.

You should place virtual stops. In this case, for insurance purposes, a real stop (at a worse price, of course) should also be placed, just in case of a loss of communication with the BC.
