Buy Stop orders and fill price

[sqaguru]

When a buy stop (or Sell Stop) order is placed, for example, 2 pips above resistance, if the limit price level is hit, the order gets filled at the ask price (current price + spread). Does Forex Tester 2 support an order type that places an order to buy at a limit price, once prices hit the trigger price. For example, I place an order at price A, that when price A is reached, an order is created to buy at price A (if and when the ask reaches A).

Hello,

Yes, pending order are placed in Forex Tester program using the same rules as the trading platforms.

For example, you place a buy stop order, when the Ask price reaches the price of the buy stop order, buy order with the same price will be placed.

I'm sorry, but this is not how Forex Tester 2 works now. If a buy stop order is placed at price A, when A is hit, a buy order at the Ask price is placed. The Ask price at that time is A + spread, so the execution is higher by the amount of the spread. Any plans to fix this?

Hello,

Please see the screenshots.

I placed a Buy Stop order at 1.39291 price and it was opened at 1.39291, so it was opened at the Ask price like it should and not at Ask + A price.
