Please have a look at this strategy.
It is the only one strategy that is mismatching In my small eurusd portfolio of 7 strategies.
I assume something wrong with a particular strategy.
Thanks

could you please have a look at these 3 strategies as well as they are not placing SL,TP orders in MT4.
I've reported 4.5.144 to Tomas Matejka and he said that issue with TP was fractals again and he reported it to the team
But not placing SL is not good.
Thank you in advance.
how to calculate optimal minimal sl in pips then? during the building process, SQX automatically finds the best one.
17547 is a little weird, because it uses Monthly Close price 5 months back as a PT which doesn't make much sense to me.
I can't see anything suspicious in 64166.
Hankeys made a good point. It is definitely a good choice to use minimal SL when building strategies with indicator based SL.
That way you can be confident that there will always be SL applied.

So should I uncheck indicator based SL and TP as it is not guaranteed that they will be used?
I can't get how could I set minimal SL, just set as 10 pips? And it could be set higher by the strategy later? How to calculate it properly?
looking at the strategy logic, I can tell that this strategy is not very good.
It's SL is based on Fractals which is problematic -> described here https://strategyquant.com/doc/strategyquant/best-practices-for-multi-tf-strategies-backtesting-and-trading/
Also the KAMA uses high periods. We have adujsted min/max settings of the KAMA periods recently so Builder doesn't produce periods that may be problematic.
The adjustments were max ShortPeriod = 30, max LongPeriod = 50. It will be included in final build.
I suggest removing this strategy from your portfolio and replacing with another one.
Best regards,
Tomas
