Hi Guys,
Just started trading after doing a full course. Testing out a strategy on a practice basis in demo account. Set my TP to 138.233 on GBP/JPY. The candle broke down to 138.195 but my tp did not hit and the trade is still continuing. How can this be? have uploaded a pic if its worked. Thanks 
are you on trading on TradingView? And the same thing happened to me a few times, where my trade was still running after passing my TP. I contacted my broker, and they let me know it was the connection of where I was at prevented the trade from closing. So it might have to do with your connection
Was it a stop-market order or a stop-limit order?
A stop-limit order may not be hit if the market blows through your stop too fast.
Yes trading view.
Many thanks for responding will look into this

I’m using a smart trader and it is a stop - limit. I was in sell and the trade passed my take profit limit but did not take me out of the trade as can be seen in the photo.
