I have a check profit block prepared for a different instance as well however it does not trail like this one would so it doesn't fulfill my need

Trailing start is based off of this formula. I intended for it to be based off profit being a certain percentage

Could anyone identify what is wrong with my trailing stop configuration. The goal is to trail by x% of profit (trailing stop) once price reaches x% of balance (trailing start) it seems to be an issue with the trailing start here. https://fxdreema.com/shared/bA5VH4Z4d

@cmuphyfx here is what i have now. it seems to work ok

@cmuphyfx my stop loss is configured based off the ATR

@l-andorrà I want trailing stop to move based on percentage of profit. so once profit reaches for example 3% it trails by 1%

@l-andorrà Would this be correct?

@l-andorrà i am familiar with variables and want to achieve this same thing. can you help?

What I am trying to do is check closed trades profit from history and close all charts if certain amount has been reached. I have discovered the check profit block but that is all i have so far

Is it possible to check closed profit for the day? idk maybe using bucket of trades or something of the nature. All help is appreciated

@SimonFX @PipTheRipper did anyone find the solution?

what would I need to put in the global variable?

Are there any EAs known that will disable auto trading when the settled profit/loss for the day is a percentage of the daily starting balance. I am looking for an EA that considers the settled profit/loss not the floating PnL

@jstap I know right. I didn't run into this until i made the switch from mt4 to mt5. But so far no more issues. thanks for your input my friend

yes i will be using on tick. I am referring to the "no more than n" parameter within the for each trade block. do you believe changing this to 1 will render the desired effect?

@jstap do you think using 1 in the no more than n parameter will correct the trade identification problem? because it is identifying data from other trades from other charts and the magic numbers are different

@jstap I was under that impression also but they are indeed working on the on tick block. when I used the for each block it was still inappropriately identifying the trades so i changed it to if position when i saw a thread saying this was possible. what are your thoughts?
maybe if I switch back to For each as you suggest and input not more than 1 trade for "n"
