So, can anyone help me to find the problem? Thx
Forwarding testing on demos is how most everyone checks to see if EAs work as advertised. As for live, if it doesn't work as expected on a live account, that's the broker. Apparently, your broker uses different settings on their demo server as compared to their live server. This type of activity continues to be a problem. My humble suggestion is to switch brokers. IBFX, FXDD or Tradeview have all demonstrated that their demo servers and live servers have similar settings. Also, watch your journel tab in the terminal area. It will show the activity of the EA and whether or not the server took or even processed the request.

If anyone else can chime in with possible suggestions, please do. As I stated above, it comes down to the broker as to how the orders are processed, opened, traded and closed...good luck!
