Hi CJA, your ea trailing limit-stop is just fantastic. Thank you very much. It is possible to share mql4 files with us please. Or could you manage it to jpy as well, because for jpy it is not working properly. thanks in advance

{quote} Hi CJA Thank you for thisThis looks like a really old post but if it's all the same. Could you please share the editable code if possible. I would like to modify the code to trail the orders after every 5 pip movement. Great work on the EA! RESPECT
The EA does have a Trailing Stop and Trailing Step I would have thought the Trailing Step should achieve what you want??

Hi cja, if I put the EA on a USD pair chart (with function "Control all stop Orders" on true) then the yen pairs do not work. The pending order then jumps directly to the price. If I put the EA directly on a yen pair chart then it works. Vice versa too. The "Control all stop Orders" function does not work. The EA works properly when I put it on every chart separately. Greetings, Chris
It used to work but I guess MetaQuotes have done something in the background with one of the updates to cause this issue. I have had to totally rewrite the code so now if using "Control all Pending Orders = true" the currency pairs traded must be in the "Selected Pairs" input list. If you are trading only on a single chart and the "Selected Pairs" is empty the EA will automatically pick up the currency pair for that chart.
NOTE : This EA is coded to work on Forex currency pairs only if you try using it on Metals/futures/indices etc the trailing distance may be incorrect. For example if trading on a single Gold ( XAUUSD ) chart you my get around it by increasing the "Trailing Stop" by the factor of 10.
You cannot change the name of this EA or it will not work.
Trade what you see not what you hope

Thank you for your work.

Hi CJA
So I've been backtesting this ea (Trailing Stop Orders.ex4) and it's perfect... I have created an EA called level monitor that sends me alerts when price reaches specific levels. So I would like to integrate the Trailing stop orders code into my piece of code. Please advise
I was truly hoping you'd help me with the source code because my version of a trailing pending order doesn't work and I cannot seem to figure out why. You're the only person who's programmed this ea as well as you have. Please help
