Disliked{quote} If you trail the SL above the BE and get stopped out you need keeping track of all the losses you took and take them into account for the next entry lot size. That makes things quite complicated, just my opinion. That's why I prefer jumping at BE in one step. Also if we trail too early we offer our SL to the market. Another option is to open two positions. When DC-H1 cleared the entry both SL are set at BE. One of the SL is trailed with DC-H4. Again the final profit is limited in the perfect scenario. But this may increase a bit the capital...Ignored
Let me clarify. When I mentioned trailing the H4 I only meant until the trade was at BE. The overall D1 trail would stay in effect.
But you're right, it would complicate the MM on a partial loss, but at least it wouldn't set to zero.
