This is using the IBdemo account, not the paper trading account: IB gets in the trade from MC on cue, posts the PT & SL on cue, but then wont trigger them to exit the trade.

I would give it a try first with paper account, it might have to do with the ibdemo account.. you never know... the other thing I would try is test with something like RightEdge or NT7 to see if it works fine with ibdemo.. if those two work fine, then you know it is MC the one with the issue, that simple.

if you have some quick code that will just buy/sell how you want it on MC6/7.. I can test against my paper account if you dont have one.. just send me a pm with the .sef...

@sysot1t I PM'd you a simple strat to test with, thanks.

OK, after another evening with MC support, we have proved that MC WILL NOT autotrade or manual trade anything that involves a PT & SL with IBdemo.
Can anyone currently autotrading MC/IB confirm that IB will trigger on PT & SL in both the IB paper account and live account?
Thanks

will test it to a 30s bar... and reduce your PT/SL to 10 vs. 100... since we want to see the execution ...
