So I gave up on the % movements, and just thought I'd set fixed prices to execute buy and sell orders... but they don't seem to process either.

Even though Last Price went from 562, 561,560,559... The rule did not execute.
I put the beeps on, and there was beeping... but then turned them off, and there was no ordering.
 
What I'm trying to do is say:
"If price gets to 560.. Put in a buy @ 550, and a sell @ 570"

But then if price goes to 550, Put in a buy @ 540, and a sell @ 560

So I used < and > to stop orders triggering that I don't want in other groups.
(ie, if I say price goes below 560, then...     Then all the groups like 550, 540, 520 etc will all trigger)

Anyone know what is wrong with this rule?

If, 24 hr Highest Price, Goes More Than, 10%, Sell All my BTC, Market Ask Price

What I just don't understand is "Goes More Than, 10%"

10% of what?
If it's current price then what is the tick time? Is it yesterdays low price? Is it price of my buy price? Is it the bid price of 10 minutes ago?
I can't see how these formulas can work without defining the "Goes more than, 10% of........."

I'm trying to get these "rules" to work as well.

Trying to say:
"If current price (last, bid or ask) drops 2% from Last Buy price... then Buy 0.01BTC at current price"
"And then also place a sell of 0.01 BTC at 2% Higher than last buy price)

I have this in the rules:
1. If my orders last buy price<2%  bid  0.01BTC  Last Price
2. If my orders last buy price < $1  ask  My Orders Last Buy +2%


So to test this, I bought manually at $566. Which means a 2% drop should be $554
Well the price has dropped to $535 and still no buy order has been placed.

So what am I doing wrong.
I just want to automatically set a buy order at 2% less than my last buy.
(and also a sell at 2% higher... but that is step 2)

We pretty much all want this and none of us have gotten a straight answer about it lol.

Yes I can see that there's a couple of queries about how the syntax works...
It's a shame the rule syntax isn't well explained here, because this would be some awesome software if it could do this.
Just needs to have a rule that says:

If "current price"    "goes less than"     "My Orders Last Buy Price  - (% or fixed amount)"   then "Sell ...."

Eveything is ALMOST there... except for the extra condition to compare current price with my last order price. 

Shouldn't be too hard a job to add that in, right?
