Post subject:  Click and drag take profit and stop loss EA
Hi, This is my first post since registering with this great forum. So much to learn! This TP and SL EA looks fantastic!
I have an ea which trades profitably for the most part (All on dummy accounts so far), except when the market starts to break out in one direction. As it is an ex4 file I can't see the code, but I have never reached its stop loss. I therefore suspect the stop loss to be unrealistically high as, left to its own devices this ea can blow the account. To enable the ea to run more on autopilot, I therefore need a stop loss and take profit, which if I had access to the code, I would hard code into it. At the moment I trade GBP USD on the one minute chart.
Can anyone tell me if I open another GBP USD 1 minute chart and add this 'Click and drag take profit and stop loss EA' to it, will it pick up on the trades from the other ea and set TP and SLs? I understand magic numbers might come into this, and I have to assume the trading ea I have, has no magic number. I realise this may well be a daft question, but I am relatively new to this. Thanks!

Hello Tommaso !
Could you make the EA draw a BE line on the screen ? that may sound stupid but that would be super helpfull for beginners like me, to start with a solid MM principle !
thanx to you guys providing such great tools !

Hi Mop,

Both ea works great.But I wonder why the "Click'n drag TPSL EA for multiple trades.mod fxdaytraderb6xx.mq4"
TP/SL is always 30 pips distance from the open order price...i.e if let say I put Instant TP/SL - 30 and Hidden TP/SL - 20,the distance between the open order price from the hidden TP/SL still remain 30 pips.Instead,it sort the distance between the Instant TP/SL and the hidden TP/SL to become 10 pips..I want to have an option to tighten a bit the Hidden TP/SL to 20 pips from the open order ,just like what the "Click-and-drag take profit and stop loss EA for multiple trades.b6xx.mq4" did..Am I missing anything?I'm confuse now...
