Hi Max,

Thanks for your report. We generally do not recommend you activate AT when trading live, however we can investigate this to see if there is a resolution. Could you please tell us:

1) Is the screenshot you posted from the trading "Journal" tab (as opposed to the Tester journal tab)?
2) Can you close the order successfully if AT is not running (i.e. are you sure it is linked to AT running)?
3) Is there something specific about the way your order is placed? eg. Does it need to have a TP/SL, is it being placed by your EA or manually?
4) If you disable the 'Testing Enabled' switch in AT (i.e. in AT, right-click the running terminal, uncheck 'Testing enabled'), does it resolve the issue?

Thanks.

Hi Max,

Just an update to this - we've done a few tests and cannot see any link of the slippage function to live trading. We have tried various order tests and we can see that it only affects Strategy Tester orders.

Thanks.
