    I Keep getting this error message when I try to backtest my strategy on Playback

    The positions still stays but stop and profit disappear whenever this message occurs. I’m pretty sure there’s some kind of conflict. But i’m not sure how, where, or what to fix lol

    Hi Rafael, thanks for posting.

    This could mean you are placing invalid protective orders. Please check the Log tab of the Control Center for any errors. Please also share details on the stop and target you are setting.

    Kind regards,

        Hi Rafael, thanks for sending that.

        This means the stop-loss order you are trying to place is below the bid price at the time of submission. This order must be at or above the ask price when submitted.

        Kind regards,

          Thanks for the feedback Chris....
          Could you explain how I could change the Stop to Above or At the ask price?

            Hi Rafael,

            There can be many ways to set a stop. To set a stop to breakeven you can set the order using the prices: Position.AveragePrice or GetCurrentAsk() to set it at the closest possible market price. I attached a pre-made strategy builder example that implements a break even as well.

            Kind regards,
            -ChrisL
