I realized that StopMarketOrder is not working properly when using Bitfinex brokerage. It sells crypto at the StopMarketOrder price immediately.
Is it bug or StopMarketOrder is not supported with Bitfinex brokerage?
How can I make a stop loss with this borkerage?

Hi all,
I'm also having this issue, I have been following the tutorial "Buy & Hold with a Trailing Stop" but the StopMarketOrder gets triggered immediately after the MarketOrder on Bitfinex.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

I just tried the algorithm above with Bitfinex and it appears to be working as expected:
- the buy market order is submitted and filled
- the sell stop order is submitted but not activated
Perhaps you could try logging the fill price and stop price or posting the order events.
There should not be an immediate fill event for the stop loss order.
