Hi Mate: I demo test the EA today with a number of forex pairs and different time frame. 1 weird thing I found out today is, the EA can be removed automatically, gone missing from the chart. I noticed the problems, thought it was something wrong on ...

Add two input parameters: "Profit Lock in Pips" and "Profit Lock Trailing in Pips" Should the EA then start trailing at 10 pips distance? So worst case you would get 60-10 = 50 pips profit. How is this different from a trailing stop? Hi mate: This ...

Thanks mate! I will test the EA whenever I am free. Respect, Bill

Mate, it will just work same as MT4's Common Tab for Buy Only, Sell Only, or Buy and Sell. Actually, this feature/user input is pretty common among the MT5 EA, as the Common Tab is gone in MT5. Buy and Sell Mode is what we are having now. If we set ...
