Stop loss process

[testtrade14-beep]

Hi - can you conf below flow correct and ctx.stop_loss_pct isn't active until D+2 skipping entry day?

D: signal computed.
D+1 open: entry fills.
D+1 intraday: if low breaches stop, that breach is ignored for built-in stops on that new entry, because stop checking for D+1 already happened before the trade existed.
D+2: now the position exists before stop checking runs, so PyBroker checks D+2’s stop condition using D+2’s configured trigger rule. In your current code that means the default rule: check D+2 low/high, and if triggered, record an exit at the stop threshold on D+2. It does not exit because D+1 had breached.

Thanks!

Yes, this is correct. The stop will never be executed on the same bar that the entry is filled on.

Let me know if you need any other clarifications.
