ProOrder Auto Trading - "Your trading system was stopped because it tried to place a stop order below the minimum distance required by your broker." I have had problems getting this message this week (since 21st Jun) with my systems based on major currency pairs. Systems have worked fine for over 1 year with 5,000+ trades over that period. Stop Loss set at 0.7%, which should be more than sufficient for major pairs. Trades opened between 2100h and 2315h Sunday - Thursday. Wider spreads at that time but no previous problems. Has anything fundamentally changed over the last 7 days by IG (don't think "increased volatility and therefore wider stops" can be an explanation given the 0.7% normal stop loss that I set (also failed with a 3% stop loss test) or is this an issue with ProRealCode / ProOrder? Please advise.

My automated strategies on prorealtime have stopped working because their stops on major fx markets are deemed to be too close to the market level (having worked no problem for more than a year, through volatile periods). I find this hard to believe, given that we are taking between 0.7% and 1% stops on major pairs such as GBP/USD, EUR/USD etc. can you confirm what the stop distance increased to at 9pm on Wednesday 22nd and Thursday 23rd June please so that I can see what I may need to adjust my stop levels to. Whilst markets are volatile, a 1% stop on a major currency pair should be more than sufficient. Thanks.
