Hello,

Is anyone aware of an EA or software for mt4 that has the option that allows one to set trailing limit orders? Meaning a pending order trails the market in one direction until price reverses and hits the limit, activating it.

If none one is aware of this, perhaps it can be programmed.

These two EAs are placed on a chart to control existing Pending orders that are already on the chart it does not place the Pending orders and they are not for trailing
Stoplosses only Pending orders.

Hi all,

I've been looking for exactly this without any luck. However - gridmaster's spotted an issue with this which I've already come up against on other EA's - it changes the order every pip (or maybe even tick I'm not sure) which means thousands of order mods sent to the broker.

Can anyone change this to be a jumping trail - every x number of pips set by the user?

- or point me in the direction of another EA that does the job

Thanks!

Hello Cja

Is it possible to have a fixed trailing stop, where the stop only moves when a certain price is reached?

Br,

this is exactly what I m looking for that trailing gets activated after our desired take profit zone,so if it goes against us,we can gain the profit and trade closes.

Hi, i know is an old post, but i noted that your ea works the opposite i want:

If i make a buy limit, i noted that the trailing moves only when the current price became higher. For me the trailing is correct when follow the current price when it goes lower, and when it goes higher the trailing has not to move.

EXAMPLE:
if the CURRENT PRICE is 1.100, i put a BUY LIMIT ORDER at 1.093.
If the prices moves at 1.105(+5 points), i want that the ea moves the BUY LIMIT at 1.098(+5 points).
If the price go down to 1.098 the orders will be opened in real.

By doing that, the limit order will be always at the same maximum distance from the current price.

is it possible to modify your ea??
