So here is what happens.  When you get an entry signal a trade of 0.85 lots is opened.  No additional lots can be added when a new entry signal is given because the maximum position size is set to 0.85.  Then when a reversal signal is given the lot size is reduced to 0.00 closing out the trade because the Amount to Close on reduction is set to 0.85.  Since the trade is closed out when the trend reverses SL is not moved to breakeven.
