Hi MaxShih,

It is important to know why your stop-loss is not being set. Tickstory only exports pricing data and after that, the MT4 Strategy Tester and your EA is responsible for setting the stop-loss. If your stop loss is not getting entered, it can only mean that:

1) Your EA is not creating a stop-loss.
2) MT4 Strategy Tester is rejecting your stop-loss command.

In the case of 2), the EA Journal should tell you this.

Before you proceed, please make sure you have acquired all your broker's correct settings for XAU by following this method: https://tickstory.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=809

Hope this helps!
