An auto-strategy with only a small edge could quickly be turned to a big losing strategy by just one orphaned trade.
I couldn’t work out what was going on … I had showed + £750 ish current position profit on my IG Dashboard but next time I looked it had gone from the Profit / Loss column but the IG Funds column had not increased.
Traced it to 5 orphaned trades which had turned from winners to losers and they had been crying out for some love and attention … but as they were orphaned they had no controls and had been left feral!
I did check after the Rejects I reported earlier on this Thread but the the orphans must have been out of sight / below the fold on the screen and I missed the scroll bar!
Do Orphaned Trades occur on the Live Platform … well scary if they do!?
