hey guys i recently my first brewed in a bag a porter gravity 1042 it was in primary for a week now its been 3 day in second all together 10 days i took a gravity test today after 10 days and still 1020 1022 the question is this normal with porter or i should be concern, brewed other beer before and by the 10th day should be around 1010 or 1012 or something like that..
 
Several questions so we can help you more:
Why transfer to secondary if not finished fermenting? The primary yeast cake is needed to complete fermentation and clean up off flavors. Secondary is unnecessary anyway.
Are you measuring gravity with a refractometer? If so, you need to use an online calculator to correct for the presence of alcohol or use a hydrometer.
What yeast, and what temperature are you fermenting at?
What was your recipe?
