There is no known problems been reported and the only changes where the introduction of signals and an additional shortcut key action so nothing that is close to effecting any stop losses.

Are you sure they have actually stopped working or Is it possible they are still being triggered but just not been matched?
Have a check of your log that will clarify for sure if there at least triggering correctly

Hi Lads.
I had the same problem this evening. I was trading some sprints IR. The yellow box didn't show but it was down on the log. So I'm still not too sure if it's 100% Maybe it's me not instructing the right signal as there's two boxes in the automation rule??? Stop trigger(ticks) Place at (ticks) ....Is it me or is that a little confusing? So........say I wanted to place a lay at say????5 with an offset with greening @ 30 ticks and a stop loss of say....20 ticks.
How would I put that into Guardian? Stop trigger 20 Place at 20??
Is that the right way of doing it cos I ended up doing it manually as I wasn't sure if it would trigger....
Thanks In Advance

This link explains how the stop loss ticks and place at works
viewtopic.php?f=47&t=11746
Its demonstarted when using the global settings for regular manual trading but the exact same principals apply when using it with automation from the global settings on the 'Parameters' tab of the rules editor.

A yellow box only appears when right clicking a stop loss, if a stop loss is triggered through global settings and/or automation then no yellow boxes will appear instead the stop is just set in the back ground, hence why you see it on your log once its been triggered.

Thanks Dallas,
That's helped me out :) I was a little confused by it with the place at(ticks) but reading that got my head round it.

Cheers ;)
