Why did the trailing stop not register the price? And, why did the trailing stop not execute?
Trailing stops in the MetaTrader platform are customized and are held in your computer, not in our servers. If the computer is turned off, the trading platform is closed, or if the computer is disconnect from the Internet, the trailing stop will not be executed. Therefore, it is important to remember to leave the computer on if you have trailing stops resting in the market using MetaTrader. Trailing stops on the Metatrader 4 platform are server based (held on CMS FX servers) and once set should not be affected by closing the platform or turning off the computer.
