I am trying to use stop management using "Trade management by study". I have two separate studies added one for long only and other for short only trades.
Even though the formula in the studies used for trade management is same logic, it works perfect for long trades but for short trades are stopped out immediately upon entry.
I am enclosing the chart book with the studies. Appreciate if some one can have look at it and highlight what's wrong in it.

Check your Trade Activity Log. Your formula in ID4 is broken. It is requesting 5.50.

Thanks for quick response. I did checked the possibility of any error in formula before posting this issue.
I am attaching a new chartbook where the Trade Management Study is using just an EMA for stop management. Even in the new chartbook, the problem is same. Long trades work perfect but any Short trade is closed immediately upon placing the order.
