Stop Loss not working with small numbers
17 Feb 2015, 20:40 

ExecuteMarketOrderAsync(TradeType.Buy, Symbol, volume, "label", 0.5, null, delegate(TradeResult tradeResult) { });

When I execute the previous order, the stop loss (0.5 pips) doesn't work. It doesn't appear in the cTrader or cAlgo deal map, and it does never fire. It works if I set 1 pips, but not with 0.5, and no error is given in tradeResult.

What is the minimum stopLossPips I can provide? Shouldn't this be documented?

Currently decimal values of SL and TP are rounded to the integer number of pips. Therefore minimal SL is 1 pip. We plan to change this behavior and allow decimal protection in the future.
