DislikedI don't recall making an EA like this. Maybe someone else made one.Ignored
I wonder if I could change it myself ( i used to program in REXX). Can I get access to the source and change it myself?

DislikedHi, Stockwet!
I'm using your EA Managetpv34.
Today, I bought cable at 1.9863 (13:30gmt). Your EA attached. It had First Target at 45; Target Increment at 20; Close Lots at 0.1; First Stop Target at 6 and First Stop at 1.
GBPUSD spiked up to 1.9898, that is 25 pips from entry and closed at 1.9854. All that in 1 minute.
Your EA did not moved stop at entry+1 once it was at +6. So, I closed my long when I could as I had Use Max Loss set to false.
Do you have any idea of what could've happened?

DislikedHi Moneybiz, thanks for adding those extra two TP's... I like that and also Stockwet for creating this real lifesaver... it sure takes a lot of stress out of trading.
Moneybiz, I'm using your modified MTP_1.7 EA and last night it took profits but did not move my SL's (GBP/JPY on IBFX). Is there anything in my settings that might be wrong if you don't mind taking a quick look? Or did I maybe miss a later version of MTP_1.7 in the attachment folder?
extern string PreSet_Name = "Default";
extern int First_TP = 20;
extern int Second_TP = 50;
extern int Third_TP = 100;
extern int TP_Increment = 20;
extern double Close_Lots = 0.25;
extern int Close_Method = 1;
extern int First_Stop_Target = 20;
extern int First_Stop = -60;
extern int Second_Stop_Target = 40;
extern int Second_Stop = 0;
extern int Third_Stop_Target = 60;
extern int Third_Stop = 20;
extern int Trail_Stop_By = 30;
extern int Max_Loss = 60;
extern bool Alert_Sound = true;
extern bool Alert_Email = false;
extern int Magic_Number=0;
Thanks,

DislikedHi Linus
Tell me please, in this example, does your last trade function with a TS or does it just close when it hits the TP?
Also I have 2.4, but it does not have all the settings that you have listed, what version of 1.7 is that from and where can I find it please?
Cheers
