Why are the take profit (T/P) and stop loss (S/L) prices not visible on the chart?
The article explains that take profit (T/P) and stop loss (S/L) levels may not appear on your MT5 chart due to chart settings not showing trade levels, T/P or S/L prices being too far from the current market price and thus outside the visible range, or a mismatch between the chart and the traded product. Adjusting settings, zoom, timeframe, or verifying the product can resolve these issues.
