Hey guys, we've been working for a few days on getting the partials to correctly report slippage. I'm unsure how this has never been picked up before, but the way that the copier works makes it really hard to calculate the slippage between the master and slave when dealing with partials.
We've coded something which should make the reporting 99% accurate on the simpletrader website (only on new trades moving forward - I can't fix the old ones I'm afraid).
While doing testing, I noticed that sometimes the EA wouldn't update the partial close for up to 90 seconds in the EA. This had no effect on copier speed, simply the speed at which it reported the close to our systems. This has been rectified in version 3.4 - so if you upgrade to 3.4 you will now be able to view both slippage AND execution time on partials (previously we had neither)
To upgrade from version 3.3 - simply go into your start menu (windows 8 press windows key then type "simpletrader") and you'll find a simpletrader updater.
This willl remove version 3.3 and install 3.4 - restart MT4 and you can drop 3.4 onto a chart and off you go.
YOU CAN DO THIS WHILE YOU HAVE TRADES OPEN.
