Hi marian.kosa,

On which symbol do you run this? Is the volume appropriate? Do you get any messages in the log?

RE:

I tried it on 2 random forex pairs (eurUsd, UsdJpy), I am backtesting it on my demo account, volume should not be a problem. In Log i see only those print() numbers. 313132313232 etc... nothing about orders.

Hi marian.kosa,

If you try this volume on EURUSD, you will get the below errors in the log

The volume is the reason your orders are not executed.

RE: RE:

Ok. the volume needs to be at least 1000, not 100. I missunderstood tooltips there. Wonder why i did not get any error message during backtesting...
