Metatrader 4 Stop Loss question

Hey everyone,

I have recently started to demo trade using a FXCM metatrader 4 account. I have a few strategies that I use which are all independent of one another. These are all swing/position strategies. The issue I am running into is this: I will place an instant execution order with a certain stop loss, but I may also place a buy/sell stop order as well with a different stop loss (independent strategies). For some reason, when the buy/sell stop order gets filled there is now only one stop loss for both orders…which appears to be which ever one is closer. If I modify one of the order’s stop loss, it changes the other as well. Obviously, I would like to keep two different stop loses for each of the orders. Can anyone let me know what I may be doing wrong? Any input would be great, and thanks for reading.

There is a FXCM rep here somewhere(Jason I think), not sure what you are doing wrong or if FIFO has anything to do with it.

Hi Bavarious,

I responded to this question in your other thread here.
