Why does the trailing stop not show after the initial stop is breached ?

If a PTP calculation tool is placed on a signal and the initial stop is breached then the trailing stop will not be displayed.

There may be a case where the price action has moved against the signal, breaching the Initial Stop, before moving through the entry price.

In this instance, to get the trailing stop to show for the continuing trade, edit the drawn PTP Calculation and increase the 'Initial Stop' to a greater value to avoid the breach. The trailing stop will then show and will take preference to the 'Initial Stop' line.
