{quote} I see. You right. If that's the case then there's no need to have a BE trigger price/pips.... Why didn't I think of that... So when the button is pressed, whenever the grid reaches the BE price, grid will be closed.
Exactly. Mind though that the SL must remain active after calling BE ...because that BE can possibly wont ever hit but SL must protect you whatever happens

I think it got something to do with the connection from button on screen to the parameter setting (not sure) currently I am using direct from parameter setting I notice it happens when trading with lines activation. There a mysterious bug lol. 1 question when e.g. on screen click deactivate BE will the parameters setting change to false & vise versa?

So it hanged when you tried to open a grid using line? What parameter did you input into the horizontal name?

If I follow TudorIon's advise.
When you set the BE on before you open a grid.
And THen when you open a grid, once the grid opened, it will close by it self because it thinks it is BreakEven already.
So suggestion, before you will place a a grid make sure the BreakEven button is off (red) so your grid won't be closed by the BE function.

I just scrapped my previous BE setup.
Now this is a new setup.
BE doesn't have any trigger to be activated. It is always On and will close the grid when ever it reaches the BE target. But it still can be switched off and on

something is wrong with the be function it closes the grid eg set 30 pip profit but when it hits the set be ea think it's TP
IT closes exactly at the set be e.g. 10 pips it close as saying be hit

This BE is almost similar to Take Profit except that BE == xxxx where TP >= xxxx
Actually I don't understand the problem that you mentioned.

What R:R value did you set?
By any chance did you set the BE to 30?

E.g. if I set tp say 30 pips and BE 10 pips will the sl be move to BE after an average of 10 pips (meaning sl+0)
R:R 30/30 (stop limit per grid = 2) i converted the currency to have 10 pips be
It is currently taking profit on BE amount if set be true volume per grid 0.50

As the BE doesn't have a trigger the BE is almost similar as TP
1.So when you open a trade and it has 1 pip profit.
2. Then you turned on the BE with 10 pip
3. When the grid goes from 1 to 10 pip profit, it will BE regardless how big your R:R ratio is.

As you can see, because there's no trigger on the BE, it acted as if it's like TP.

So here's the advise.
If you set BE to 30, you better turn it on after your grid has >BE+10 pips profit (in this case 40) just to be safe.
