    Strings are the problem. Not the peep. May have some stretching going on.

    I am new to this platform and looking ways for curing my peep problems. If you could solve my problem I would be highly glad of this forum.

    That is the correct way to align a peep. Twist from the bottom. Pull the string very tight before releasing the bow to make sure that under pressure it will be lined up. All peeps will rotate a little under pressure. You may have to do this several times to get it right but this is the correct way rather than "training" the peep. Nothing bugs me more than having to rotate a peep each time I shoot. Also, if too many twists have been removed from the string it will be hard to keep in alignment.
    Make sure you remember which way to turn it as when relaxed the peep often is turned in the opposite direction.

    I would take the peep out, the loop off and start from the beginning. If the strings are "broke in", you should be good to go. If you keep having problems, it may be time for new strings.

    Ya I just got my new string installed and starting out my peep was sideways, but when at full draw it would straighten out perfectly. Really annoyed me, even know it was straight when shooting. Anyway the string eventually settle without twisting, but then my peep was backwards. Had to take it in so they could put my peep correctly. Works fine now. Also a couple twists helped.

    If you have the rubber leaches in the string they will squash as you draw and peep will rotate. then you have to set it for the finish and not the start lol.
    No ifs and or buts Just maybee.
