Failed modify position Stop Loss on real account, but never in backtests

[Marco Fiocco]

I've activated my EA on using the MT5 VPS and it created a position on Bitcoin but it failed to set the Stop Loss which is strange because the EA never failed during all my backtests.

I had to set manually a SL to the level that the EA expected, and that worked.

The algorithm opens a position and subsequently modifies the SL and TP.

Looking at the logs below I can see that the price returned when opening the position is 0, which never happens during the backtests. This looks like a bug or something very unusual.

I don't know whether that is the reason why the Modify position failed, because I re-read the open price for the new position again and I use that to compute the SL, which has been correctly computed to  10994.93.
