Moving Stop Loss/Target on chart while EA is active (Solved)

[Mohamed80]

Does anyone know how to modify stop losses and target profits from the chart while the EA is running?

I have an EA that places stop loss based on a horizontal line that is named "Stop" and the same thing for target profit.

What I need to do is to drag these horizontal lines to change the stop loss/target profit.

What I know so far is once the EA is applied to the chart then that's it; there is no way to modify it later on.

I believe it will be a long process and not a straightforward one and may involve loops; perhaps? I just can not figure where to start from.

Can someone put me on the first few steps to achieve this?

Thanks,

@jstap @l-andorrà and others of course, how would the structural concept should look like?

Hi @max-c

The thing is that I have horizontal lines on the chart representing SL, TP. Do not see the how the EA in your example would react to dragging these lines up and down.

can you share your ea. the thing is horizontal line are just a visual representation of the stop and target.

@max-c

Trade will close when the price is >= Horizontal Line price level named "Target" or will close when the price is <= Horizontal Line level named "Stop".

What I need to do is to drag/move these lines on the chart while the EA is running.

@mohamed80 Then you need a loop search9ing for that horizontal line and pick up the price there via variable. Like this:
