Hi all,

You just need to use the new parameter called protectionType and set explicitly what the protection type is.

public TradeResult PlaceStopOrder(TradeType tradeType, string symbolName, double volume, double targetPrice, string label, double? stopLoss, double? takeProfit, ProtectionType? protectionType)

Best regards,

Panagiotis

really dont understand what you say. I find that Ctrader update the new Parameter. But please answer my old questions. Is my Cbot (clound cbot which is now running) has to be change? If I dont change the the old code, logic will be wrong? 

New signature made me had a lot of things to do. Older code is optimized and I have to do it one more time which my new signature.

Hi Panagiotis,

Thank you for sharing that.
This a new parameter that is added. 
I looked up the Help section to try and understand what does the ProtectionType parameter do. 
I understand that they are three values to choose from; ProtectionType.None, ProtectionType.Relative and ProtectionType.Absolute
I couldn't understand what is their effect. Could you be kind enough to elaborate what do they do to an order or position?

Thank you

Seems like even @Panagiotis doesn't know since there's been no response… he's been awfully quiet. Wonder if he's still around or on vacation or something?
