Hi, Alex,

You do not need to use your Google drive to share images, when you submit a bug you can upload an image, please read the bug report post below.

https://ctrader.info/d/2-how-to-report-a-bug

I have requested access to your drive, if you could simply upload images next time it would be quicker for me to investigate.

Also, note that a trailing stop will not work if another setting overrides it.

Hi,

What do you mean and give me clear instruction in a setting which I send to you I activated
'' IncludeBreakEven = True ''. Also "Pause Trading Sessions'' not working .

Hi, Alex,

Trailing Stop Issue
Your first image shows some trades losing, the trailing stop and break even will only work for trades in profit.
The trailing stop will never activate because you have a stop loss of 1.5 pips and the trailing stop target is 4 pips.

Pause trading issue
I ran a backtest and no trades opened between 07:31 and 19:31, when you run a backtest the trading platform UTC time must be set as server time which is UTC+0

Also, according to your Google Drive image no trades opened between 07:31 and 19:31, the pause trading feature is working correctly.

Pause trading issue

I ran a backtest from 12.04.21- 16.04.21 according to your recommendation '' trading platform UTC time must be set as server time which is UTC+0''', but pause trading still not follow to my setting. What to do?

Hi,

It looks fine to me, no trades opened during your pause session, you may be a little confused as the pause training feature simply stops new trades from opening, it does not close them, take some time and read the user manual.
