Trailing Stop Issues
-
Hi all,
I have had trouble getting a trailing stop to work. Below is a link to the EA. I have been using skip ticks to "stop" the EA after a trade is placed or if a condition that I don't want occurs.
I've tried a few different ways to try and add a trailing stop but as soon as I try to delete the skip ticks and add a "no trade" box I run into issues of the ES not taking any trades.
Below are my projects. One with the skip ticks an another with a no trades box.
Will the forum take a look and give me suggestions on why it isn't working and how to find the proper solution?
Thanks,
Skip Ticks (works flawless minus trailing stop)

That is weird the version of your project with the "no trade" block opens positions on my broker, and i dont see why it wouldn't. Are you sure it doesn't come from yours ? -
I don't see the trailing stop structure in your first project. And The seond one is correct. I don't understans why it opens trades when it shouldn't.

Thank for taking a look. The reason I left the trailing stop on the first project is that I was using the "skip ticks" block. From my understanding, the skip ticks will affect the trailing stop. My solution was the second project I posted, but it was taking any trades so I thought that I was screwing something up.
Its encouraging that it was working seb 0. I will try it again and see if it works.
Thanks
