Hallo, guys:
Is there any chance to improve "Close Position" block's executed definition in high volatility market? Let me demonstrate it in a freak trend market on 10th last month.
Condition 1:
Only one position, No TP/SL, Close position when lose 1% of Equity($500)
See? There has a little slippage even only one position.
Condition 2:
Multiple positions, No TP/SL,, Close all positions when lose 1% of Equity($500)
Wow! We got a huge gap from $500!
Is there anything we can do that make it execute precisely?

Hello RICHDAD!
Unfortunately I could not reproduce the error! Could you please tell us what your settings are? And by the way: it was not exactly the same strategy you posted in the beginning.
It would be very interesting to know what the problem causes!
Thank you in advance!

Thank you in advance! Really? Interesting. I post them again. Please test historical data 10th July, of course you can test any day's, till having loss to stop strategy. In the end, you will find out the loss of equity that's a big gap from our setting. Thank you!

Thanks a lot once again!
Well the problem is quite easy to explain:
You trade with an amount of 100000 (0,1m) which is quite big. That would be the reason why slippage could happen in the case with one position.
In the other example you trade approximately 38 positions on average, so the slippage gets smaller for each trade but the commissions are rising. So that means you were slipped by 43,82 USD on these positions in sum.

I have already a live account, and ready to trade as soon as my VJF strategy is done. Although DUKASCOPY as an ECN broker, but I still have a little worry: how big chance to be executed immediately if I have a 100 million amount order in pair EUR/USD?

I suppose that real time equity do not includes commission fees. In your first example you have -511 loss so it is only $11 more you set or about 2% In your second example you have -543 loss from several positions so it is $43 more or about 9% Some difference may be because of spread, but I think that even 9% is very big slippage for such a small lot.
