StopPool - 02/09/18 18:05
Hi,
live trading with Oanda and 1.78.2 I have noted the trading status does not report the stop for pool trades.
I have checked the web platform and the stops are there accordingly with the StopPool setting as indicated in the manual.
Is that correct?

Yes, stops are not displayed for pool trades on the trading status page.

Ok, I have had a 5 minutes of true fear.
Evaluate if is possible to show this info in the Trading status Page. Is not critical, anyway

Possibly, but that could cause confusion: The trade status page does not show the 'fake' broker stops, but the 'real' stops set in the script. Pool trades have no real stops, therefore you see nothing on the status page.

In a market crash will be the Pool Stops triggered or not?

Depends on the market crash. Normally yes, but in a situation like the EUR/CHF crash, the broker won't give a damn on StopPool. In my opinion, StopPool is not a very useful or important feature.

Yes, sure that makes sense.
If the stops could be triggered, I think that the status page should report that stops in the pool trades too: the status page, should report "the status"... But, as I mentioned, its not a big deal.
