Moving to breakeven

Folks,

I need a little help with some expert adviser programming. I want my EA to move my stop to breakeven once my trade is up 25-30 pips. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

There are a lot of threads and posts about moving to BE.

It took me less then minute to find this: http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=136960
FOREXflash has put some code there you may find useful.

That's great, thanks!!

here's an EA for you.

Cool, thanks.
I tried putting that code into my EA though and went to back test my strategy. The journal entries are a long list of:

2009.02.22 22:20:30 TestGenerator: unmatched data error (volume limit 408 at 2009.02.23 05:00 exceeded)

I have no idea what this means (and therefore no idea how to deal with it)...

Hi Shaun,

I use this trailing stop, it is Mauro trailing stop.

You may be able to use this or find the section of code that will help you with yours.

Cool, thanks.

Any idea what the error message means though??

2009.02.22 22:20:30 TestGenerator: unmatched data error (volume limit 408 at 2009.02.23 05:00 exceeded)

shaun,

This message is an error in the broker database. Try to choose a date before 2009.02.23 or another broker for backtests.

You are using the IBFX?

Thanks for the reply. I actually had chosen a date range from 2008.01.26 to 2009.02.23. Should've been (I would think??) adequate enough for a back test. I've got a demo account that I opened with alpari..
