There may be something else going on Idempotent as a trade has just gone live that was pending on the sender - but did not move across to the receiver - it was the GBPCHF sell? both heartbeats are being updated?

Also in journal errors were related to sell stop saying "sell stop 1.52 GBPCHF at 0.00000 sl at 0.00000 tp 0.00000 failed [Invalid Parameters]

Though in the sender I have as HideSlandTP false

???

chobbes, my trade copier caught that trade, but I think it has missed others.

Some misses might be due to mismatching symbol names (XAUUSD vs GOLD, for instance). I believe the manual shows a way to manually map those symbols, but I haven't done it.

Others might be due to slippage, if that's the right term. Different brokers have different price feeds, outrageously so, sometimes. If your trade receiver gets a trade, but the current price it has for the pair is not near the other one, it might choose to err on the side of safety and not take the trade.

Looking at the document (again (you're doing that too, right? right?)) the EA parameters re Order management give some clues.

Try setting TradeAllOrdersAtMarket to true. I just did (on my demo receiver account).

On the sender? I can't see that. If on the receiver, then perhaps an order size of 1.52 is not valid. Just a guess.

Yep reading and read the manual - the message was on the receiver - even though I don't have any multipliers set??? should have been lotsize 0.1 but am guessing that could be a leverage difference between the two accounts???

Sounds a bit weird. This was for the trade from 30 min ago or so? I got it at 1.00 lot size ($50k demo vs source $5k demo).

I've run out of guesses. Keep an eye on it for any future discrepancies. It's useful to know.
