Please try the attached version. I think the issue isn't in real vs. demo. It looks like the ticker number is so large it doesn't fit into an normal integer variable, so an unsigned long integer should be used instead. Please let me know whether this fixed the problem, so I could update this for everyone. Thanks!

Hi,

I downloaded your indicator and loaded it on MT4. When I activated the indicator, I placed a new trade to test it. The ATR Trailer indicator applied to my old positions as well, using the current price with my old trades. It did not account for the fact that the old trades cannot be filled with the new trade's ATR values. Consequently, the indicator set the same stop-loss for the old trades as the new trade I experimented with, unfortunately closing 2 of my old trades and causing a loss of $1464.75. I am not very happy about this. Please be careful. Perhaps I could have prevented it, but I could not apply the indicator only to new trades and did not anticipate this issue since the ATR values are not the same for a new trade today.

Best regards.

If you want to avoid ATR Trailing Stop EA from applying to some of your trades, you can use its filtering options. For the trades on the same symbol, there's a magic number filter and a commentary filter. There's no trade age filter.

Dont use the ATR trailer as a multiplier. FIX IT TO A timeframe. If your trading h1. Set ATR on H8. its precision trading. Dont just pick a value and multiple it. It will work out better than a multipier. mark my words
