Trade instantly closes and loses on opening of trade

Sometimes when you open a trade it will instantly close itself as a loss ( or sometimes a profit). In this case it was a limit order. Note that price has not reached SL or even the price in the chart.

BTCUSD bug

Hey xibalbas, i will be making many issues, not because i dislike this program but because i love it so i hope you don't mind.

There is an issue where the program will use BTCUSD instead of the chart that is default (EURUSD for me)

Bad ordering error

Sometimes there is a bad ordering error when using limits, the trade will not execute.

Market order

Sometimes the market order will not work and say invalid tp and sl even though it is not.

the app didn't work and showed two errors

I gave full access to the Google Chrome software in the security settings, but it still didn't work. What should I do to solve the problem?
Please help me.

I put two screanshots about them here:

demo installation

hello could you post a demo video on how to install things properly for those of us not familiar with coding and python usage
the idea of your application is brilliant ive been searching ages for such
pretty sure it is worth some money
only thing i struggle with is to run it on python as i constantly get message of wrong sintaxis when copypasting or im doing it totally wrong

Getting this error

Import last CSV report

would be good to be able to save progress so that you can keep the same profit/loss

Xpath error failed to get data

PTV cannot fetch the data from chrome which is Xpath error: failed to get data.
