I think using a full ATR as stop loss might be more ideal which could mimic the next 000 hundred level I noticed the levels are always respected by most of the pairs.

I am using the default settings from the thread but also use an equity EA to close all trades after a 300 pip profit. This way all I have to do is to re-enable the EA's and wait for the next harvest.

the EA I use is called the Equity Sentry .

Great stuff I wonder can this code be incorporated into the existing TCO EA? Also do you mind sharing the EA in the interim?

Many thanks....love to harvest!

I just used Equity Sentry to close off at 3% of equity. Shuts off the EAs after target has been reached too.

Works great, thanks aworex.

Nice one Yamez! I closed my trades manually, will use E-S and automate process. Pity I was trading a demo account, figures went through the roof!

Cheers,

Someone beat me to it, it's great to use. As the TCO trades on 1HR TF one only needs to re-enable the EA tab every 6 or 7 hours once you define your harvest pips. 8-)

im confused why the need for equity sentry, the EA itself has the option to close basket after x amount of equity reached, no? currently i have my main demo to close at 3%, also using 1 ATR tp, i guess its whichever comes first to close off the trade?

My request was for an ea or feature that could close all trades after a certain number of pips were attained, not a percentage of the equity. This is what i thought the Equity Sentry EA could do. I have not had the chance to check it out yet but will and let you know.

thanks
