partial close followed by trailing stop
-
im wanting to add a trailing stop that only activates after the trade has partially closed.
how this ea works is once its in 1 ATR of profit it closes half the trade and moves the SL to break even. the partial close only happens once per tradeid like to add and trailing stop to it, that was 1 ATR away and would move in 1/2 ATR steps
ive tested the partial close and it works perfect but when i added the trailing stop it activided before thepartila close and cause partial close when not in profit

I did it not so elegant - but it works.
Instead of one single deal - I placed two identical deals (half of lot volume than planned single deal) - one of them with a TP of 1 ATR, the other one with a trailing start of 1 ATR followed by 0.5 ATR distance. -
@koalatrading
I tried something like that before but because of FIFO rules in the US there are problems
