Positions_Modified(): How to disregard TSL ?

I don't think you can check for that directly, however, what you can try is:

1. compare the new SL price with the previous SL price
2. if they're not equal, return from the method
3. if they're still equal, then you know the SL hasn't changed.

Hi firemyst,

Yes, it would be pretty straightforward, like that, if not considering any manual modifications.

The problem is that I want to implement a protection against manual modifications. Unfortunately, in that case, just comparing the SL with the previous value won't be enough to conclude anything.

I really think there should be a way to simply identity this. The TLS is placed on server and will trigger Positions_Modified() all the time, however, the most likely is that no acton is to be taken in such cases.

As an automated action, I even think there should be a dedicated/separated event for this.
