Hi Marek,
Sometimes Aeron EA can open 2 positions at same time & price or at little difference between them but it should be of different lots size,

you may say that it shouldn't be as I set PositonsGap=150, the reason is:

Aeron EA uses internally SL & TP also, it means it may close positions at market price regardless the defined SL, may be you already aware from this,
Sometimes it partially closes the position in loss, and when any position closes in loss by EA then it violates the rule of Positions_Gap, and opens the next position at same moment, [but this is not the hard-and-fast rule, it solely depends on Aeron-EA's decision as per market conditions]

Aeron EA is not a completely Martingale EA, it uses the variant of martingale system
