@alexanderjohnson21
Can you tell us what are the conditions that will make modify the stop, for the next trade please.

[Alexanderjohnson21]

thats actually what i am stuck on have no idea on how to make this happen... i tired the for each trade then modify stops but thats not what i want im gonna try to make a variable that controls this function but im just stuck if that doesnt work @seb-0

so really the main thing is that when my trade hit tp the 2nd trade moves to break even, this i got working but all the other trades are at their break even and i want those stop losses to move to the new break even

@fxDreema how can this be achieved?

I do not fully understand the logic behind it. Are all trades opened automatically? If so, why do you exactly want to modify some SL with a previous SL?

[Alexanderjohnson21]

@l-andorrà say ea makes 2 sells one hits tp the other has no tp (i refer to this as “the runner) so tp is hit the runner moves to breakeven. Now the ea takes another trade (2 sells) so now i have 3 sells total... now sell #3 hits tp and sell#4 (another runner) moves to breakeven. now this is where im having trouble... i want the sl at breakeven on sell#2 to move to the new current runner sell#4 breakeven sl, i cant for the life of me figure this out

any help would be great

thanks in advance

Is each new SL supposed to move upwards (buys) or downwards (sells) as price move in that direction? I mean, can that SL move back and forth depending on the proce level of the previous trade? Maybe a diagram would help.
