Why has the SL or TP installed on the price screen, it appears that it has touched the requested price, but not DONE?

It is necessary to know in advance that the SL or TP which is considered "DONE" must meet the following conditions:

Stoploss and Takeprofit levels are considered “DONE” if the Bid/Ask price on GICtrade Metatrader has touched the desired price, unless the price is categorized as “Wrong Quote”
“Wrong Quote” or Quotation Error is: a condition where the available selling price (Bid) or the available buying price (Ask) displayed on MetaTrader 4 or 5 Client Terminal does not reflect the available selling price (Bid) or the available buying price (Ask)/ actual market conditions.
- The price moves abnormally / wildly (up / down) and quickly from the last price and back again to the previous initial price. The price that occurs in the transaction does not match the market price at that time with reference to the price source in GICTrade.
- The SL or TP price level that is done is not always done at the posted price, due to the fast movement in the high / "hightick" market.
- Prices listed on Reuters, Telequote, Bridge and other Data Providers are non-binding reference prices only. Confirmation of "done" or "not done" of SL / TP is based on the Bid / Ask price in the GICTrade Meta trader.
If there is a "Wrong Quote" in the system, then GICTrade has the right to cancel the transaction that occurs with or without the customer's consent.
If there is an unreasonable widening of the spread in the market, the normal spread is: 60 points for Major Rate, 120 points for Cross Rate while for Gold is 100 points.

Why does the pending order (LO = Limit Order and SO = Stop Order) or SL/TP can disappear by itself?

Here are the things that must be considered to install LO / SO & SL / TP, namely:

All LO/SOs can be posted 15 minutes after Monday's market opening. GICTrade may delete the LO/SO posted in less than 15 minutes after the market opening without further notice.
