Quit command doesn't close positions

  According to the manual, the QUIT command will stop the auto trade and close all positions.

  I have tried this on many forex pairs (V10.3) and it does stop the auto trading, however ALL my positions stay open and are not closed.

  Is this a bug in 10.3 or is there a setting i have not set correctly?

  Many thanks

  Is your QUIT instruction nested into conditional statement? There maybe something not correctly tested to activate your “QUIT” instruction? Did you have this issue in live trading or only in backtest?

  I have just found the issue, there is a setting in TRADING OPTIONS -> AUTOMATIC TRADING-> POSITION & ORDER STATUS AFTER STOP

  This was set to “remain Open”, i have tested again with the setting to “Closed”, and now with the Quit command it disables the auto trade and also closes positions.

  Many thanks for your reply and assistance.
