My understandings of the FIFO rules on oanda are as follows, If I open a position now, then add one later. The first position has to close before the second one. My understanding on this is that stop loss will not work because they will not close ...

Oanda follows FIFO rules in their accounts. Their rules state that if multiple positions are taken on the same pair of the SAME size the oldest one has to close first. Since we will have multiple entries with different stop losses that will not do. ...
