Hi Milanese!

So I love the options and this trade manager is best i have used so far. Really Great. Brilliant in fact.

I, unfortunately, happen to be somewhat stupid. It's the cross I bear, so I know that this is my problem. For the last week I have been playing with your Trade Manager and I simply can't make it work to the specific functionality that I want. I know it's something easy but i have missed the mark. I have read the directions, made the set file as I thought was correct, but the jump step and trailing function fails, and after the 50% partial close, the trade goes to BE but never trails or jumps correctly. Could you take a look at my set file and see what I am doing wrong? I really hate to bother you with this but I just can't figure it out.

I am trying to do a specific set file with the following criteria:

SL= 35
TP= 200
Go to BE = 20
BE Profit Pips = 5
Partial Close at BE at 20 = 50% (one partial close)
Trailing Step= 15
Jump Step = 2

Sounds easy but clearly I am missing something.

Thank you for your time,

S

you should this useRemoveTPifPriceIsNearTP to false, than your trailing should work as expected..

Hi, Tommaso

I have the similar issue to check, if you mind.
Attached you can find the SET file. Using such sets, BE is not functional.
Please, check it out, why is it so?

With your setting BE should be set after 47 pips win (BE price will be openprice + 2 pips)
As your tp is to near TP will happen before BE can be set(you have TP=15 pips)

just try the attached setfile, in general re-read the first post, the functions, are there explained, the value to change was SLMinDistanceToPriceBE it is now set to 8 as so you will have after 10 pips set a BE with openorderprice plus/minus 2 pips...

BE-1.set

Sorry for inconvinience. The matter is that I have been using MPTM by Global for a long time.
I could not switched my brain on to your parameter names' usage.
I will try your set.
