Could you please share you project? I cannot help you if I can't what's wrong in it.

But why do you want it to be separated if you then need all other conditions to be met? I'm afraid I don't see the logic behind that.

I'm afraid I don't see your problem, sorry.

Could you please share you project? The link you shared is the one of the tutorials. Apparently you are looking for a martingale.

I know the basic formula to know the distance in pips:

A (Pips to SL) = B (lot size) / C (Amount of money to lose)

Considering that I know B and C, I can calculate A easily. The problem is the accounts' currency. That formula is perfect for EURUSD if the account is in USD, but not in EUR. How can I 'change' it into my currency, whichever it is?

You are right, trade.philips. It doesn't solve my problem. How can I calculate the SL at which the current trade should move for a specific amount of money?

If I choose a trailing stop of 10%, for example, this means that SL should move to a price level in which, if hit, trade would lose no more than 10% of the current balance. Obviously this needs to be done on 'On tick' tab.

Suggestions are welcome.

You're welcome.

There are several ways to do it depending on what you want. Having no clue of your current project I would recommend:

'No position' block on top --> All condition blocks --> Two separated 'Buy now' or 'Sell now' blocks.

You're welcome. I have no idea what @fxDreema will or will not do to get that, though.

I can't upload to fxDreema. Did you modify the code? If so I won't be able to check it out:

Bothblocks 8 and 9 are specified to not pass whether pendind buys AND sells are active. You should separate buyns only on block 8 and sells only on block 9.

Where is that detailed document?

It depends. Is it a permanent requirement or just a temporal/conditionate one? In case of a permanent one, just separate the block from the rest of the structure.

You're the man, CPxiom! I think this is a very good solution for what I'm looking for. Thank you very much.

Create a Variable and catch that price this way:

Just the second option. I have a static lot size and I need a dynamic SL. I'm afraid this is not mi field of fxDreema expertise.

And that's the condition I was talking about.

trader.philipps is right. Sharing the project here would help.

So if I understand it correctly, all trades are correct except the last one. Right? Did you modify the project I shared? If so, can you please share it here?

I remember having read a thread a long time ago in which it was explained how I can set a SL variable based on currency amount. Let's say for example I want to set a SL for a maximum loss of $200. How can I do that? However, I simply can't find it

Could someone please help me?

Are you using the 'Trailing stop' block? Is so, just switch it off once that condition is met.
