1) I wrote a very simple strategy and in the strategy wizard defined a 15 tick trailing stop. With my strategy price moved 40 and 50 ticks in many cases my trailing stop did not trigger an exit. I can email the strategy if required.
2) Also I was testing on a tick chart and when I wanted to retest after modifying values in the "backtest" tab. Upon opening the pab on the right of the strategy testing screen I realized none of my values that I had set were saved, so each time I wanted to test or retest after changing only one of the values...I would have to change ALL of the values.. Chart type, interval, date range, session value, I would have to re-enter all of my values each time I tested even though the strategy backtest window STAYED OPEN .. This was painful.
