Does anybody know of an EA that is able to trail the open profit by a $-value?
And closes all trades after the trail is hit?
Kind of like an MPBM with trailing abilities.
For example a trail of $10,-@$20,-;
If float reaches set level of say $20,- the EA closes all when the basket went back to $10,-
If float reaches $30,- close at $20,-
If float reaches $39,- close at $29,-
etc.
Most baskets that close could have closed later with a bigger profit.
The downside is one risks part of the float when the EA triggers.
Another one for me too
But one thing was wierd, i adjusted MPTM to close at 5 € Global Closure, but the trades were still opened with nearly 6 € profit, and were closed when i disabled and re-enabled autotrading. Is this a known bug or do i have to start the EA again after some changes? (last night i changed my Global Closure from 1% to a € value, and i think i haven't restarted the EA afterwards).

No need to restart, but current Empty4 is known to 'play' with EA's at will.

MPTM does this as that is how i am running it. I have a target of 100$ and trail by 60%, i also have a Tp as percentage of balance based on number of trades. MPTM has most options in there.
