OK the MacMan one seems to be working. EUR/JPY strong move down and the sell I had on that account brought the break even up and then it moved the SL every 20 pips so far. So that is good news. It worked on all the manual trades that have moved over 20 pips. Tomorrow I will set up some EAs that will buy and sell immediatley and go both ways and see how it works on EA generated trades. I assume it should not make any difference. I really would prefer to have 1 or 2 EAs covering all my trades since you know I like to post all 20+ currencies on my charts and picking and choosing the best. Anyway that is the goal. I would really like just one EA handling both directions moving the SL up as price moves, then I would use the non closing EA when I see divergance and see what happens. Looking better every day.
What maybe a unexpected side benefit of my system is if you forget to turn off the EA you may get some really good trades down the road. Here we follow the gbp/chf all the way down over a two week period. The pink are pink EA entrance plus two white EA entrances. The one white spike might have given you a heart attack. So if you ran the pink sell ea you would have had 7 trades during a 2 week period and 2 if you ran the white. Dont know if I want to get back into trading the middle of the chart again but you never know. Miracles do happen.
