Hello,
I don't know what is your entry ( buy ) formula,
but if there are multiple buy signals ValueWhen() will
return the last one so your stops are moving.
Using ApplyStop() you always setup the stop levels
at the first signal that really opens the trade.
Therefore ApplyStop() is more reliable.
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
