Dear traders\programers
Hi,
I hope you're all doing great.
I need to have an EA which closes trade(s) on a prespecified percent (%) of balance, either loss or profit.
is here any one who could guide me through this?

here is my approach:

Thank you all in advance

I see this is the second thread you used to ask for this. Please don't duplicate threads and focus on one only. The problem is that you used a Constant on the 'Adjust' tab. The only way for that to work is selecting a string type constant instead a double or int type. Then you can type the fraction number you need.

Thank you for your reply
Yes, You're right
Sure, I will.

I tried exactly as you suggested in the other thread by Ms. Elham, but it didn't work out.
would you please tell me why that is?

Thanks in advance

Oh man! I made a mistake!! There is a missing symbol there. You should use '*0.01' instead of '0.01' as I typed. Sorry. My mistake.

@l-andorrà
No Problem Bro!

In the box, should I type like '*0.01' or just *0.01 ?

My final purpose to build this EA as below:

check if Equity >= (X% of Balance + Balance) then close the trade.
check if Equity <= (X% of Balance - Balance) then close the trade.

Please help me with this
Thank you so much

Here is my newest approach
Please help me figure out why the EA doesn't close the trade in profit/Loss?
Where might I have entered any thing wrong?

I appreciate any kind of help

Dear @l-andorrà
I tested this, but I don't know why it doesn't close the trade as it should do!
any suggestion?

[l'andorrà]

The problem is that those variables 'final equity profit/loss' need to be a decimal number (0.01, 0.02, etc). And then they should also include the '*' as I explained before. That is not possible to do with formula blocks. I'm afraid you will need some custom code to get it. Sadly I'm not a programmer so I cannot help here,

Thank you for your time
I've done it!

@Taho_Trader Seems to me your project works as it is. Only put >= instead of ==

@Taho_Trader You're welcome.

@Taho_Trader I think the below method is simpler / easier.
