Virtual trailing stop

[greg]

Hi guys,

All the best in 2020 - let it be the most profitable year to all.

Just a quick and I guess an easy one for many of you.
I'm trying to make a structure that will have a virtual stop loss that will be trailed when the trade is in profit.
I'd literally like to copy that structure but make the SL invisible for the broker:

shared/oLvCZOuyb

There seems to be quite a lot about it on the forum but I think it's too advanced for me at this stage.

Can anyone help?

That is the structure you need to hide your SL to the broker. All blocks under 'For each trade' are doing exactly that. What do you need about it?

@greg In the project option

@ambrogio If you use virtual stops you should also consider using the emergency stop function in case the connection to the broker gets lost!

@trader-philipps Oh thank you, i never use this function, I just knew where to find it

@ambrogio Wow, thanks, that helps a lot - exactly what I needed! I can already see the EA is running a bit differently with virtual stops but I assume that may have something to do with the slippage. I'll play around with the settings and see if I can get it to work the same way as before.

@trader-philipps I remind you that no stop loss worked in this case!!!

@ambrogio Sure, but at least a bit of secure feeling it would give
