Hello, you need to put in the receiver settings:

Copy Stop Loss=false

Apply TP/SL in =Points (or Money)

and then apply below your desired SL in Points or in Money for each receiver copied trade.

Stop Loss in Points=.... (your desired stop loss in points)

or

Stop Loss in Money=.... (your desired stop loss in money)

You can read all details about the setting in the settings/inputs guide:

Hi Eleni,

I would just like to ask when you are planing to release next update, which will have the feature for keeping and copying original TP/SL distances in points.

Regards,

Hello Hilmi, I am in the middle of this Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5 update and I hope to have it ready by the end of August.

It will include about 10 new features and that requires a lot of testing to make sure that everything will run smoothly.

Hi Eleni, 

I just made a change of transmitter and receivers in my VPS. 

Everything seems good except for the lot size (Risk %).  

Master to trade 1% of balance

2 prop firms slaves to trade at 0.5% of balance   

1 personal slave account to trade at 1% of balance

But somehow it seems to be very different to what I want when I test the implementation as seen in the screenshot. 

Any help at all? 

Many thanks.

Sorry I resolved it thanks

Good, let me know if you need anything else you help you with.

Hi Eleni,

I am a long term user of Local Trade Copier, excellent tool. 

However, I'm facing a strange issue. Earlier I was using it in Win VPS 2012 it was running perfectly without any slowness, and I had recently migrated to high configuration Win VPS 2016 server. Since then, after migration, trade copier is opening/closing orders at a delay of 20 seconds most of the time. I'm using many mt4 ⇒ one mt4 terminal setup. Any help in troubleshooting is greatly appreciated ?

Many thanks.

Hello, the answer is within your question: 

"Earlier I was using it in Win VPS 2012 it was running perfectly without any slowness, and I had recently migrated to high configuration Win VPS 2016 server. Since then, after migration, trade copier is opening/closing orders at a delay of 20 seconds most of the time."

This is purely a computer/VPS issue, Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5 copies and closes the trades instantly and under 0.5 seconds when the MT4/5 terminals, the broker and the network connections are good.

Since no other user has reported something similar, I can safely suggest to try on another computer or VPS.

Please let me know if you need anything else to help you with.

Hi Eleni, great EA, thanks for all the hard work,

Regarding the close trades at a set time option, is it possible to have an option to re-open the same trades at another set time(which only re-opens the trades that were closed by the time trigger)? 

I know that there's a re-open closed trades option but if I use this it also re-opens trades that were closed by the % profit in basket option.

Thanks again

Joe

Hello Joe and thank you for your nice comments.

Your request is very personalized, but I will put it in my future update list and I will see what I can do.

Hello, thank you for this wonderful EA at such a reasonable price! I do have one question problem though:

If I set Copy on Monday - Sunday to 00:00:00-14:30:00,16:30:00-23:59:59

The EA would stop copying trades between 14:30 - 16:30. However, my problem is that I dont want the receiver to open those trades that were placed on the Transmitter between 14:30 - 16:30. Even though I have set "Copy Current Trades" to false, the receiver would still open the trades which were placed on the transmitter account between 14:30 - 16:30. 

The problem could be very significant because if the transmitter placed a market order between 14:30 - 16:30, the copied trade on the receiver which only execute after 16:30 would have a HUGE difference in filled price.

Please would you advise or rectify this problem? 

Many thanks

Following my last comment. May I suggest an additional feature for the next update please?

I suppose most traders like me use Copy on Monday - Sunday options to avoid trading during impactful news. My suggestion is that during the no-copy period (i.e. 14:30 - 16:30 using the example above), the receiver account will close all those trades which are currently showing positive unrealised profit. As to those trades which are currently showing an unrealised loss, the copier can place a Pending break even order to close those trades. 

Say the news is at 15:00, we can have an option which allows the trader to flatten all positions X minutes before the news. In other words, if those trades which are showing unrealised loss and were not closed by the pending break even orders, this option will alow the EA to flatten everything just X minutes before the news. 

Many thanks!

Hello Eric and thank you for your nice comments for the Local Trade Copier EA MT4.

I have acknowledged this issue myself and I have fixed it in the new update that will be available in a few days.

When Copy Current/Old Trades=false, the transmitter trades that will be opened outside of the receiver copying time, they will not be copied in the receiver side.

As a workaround until this is fixed, you could use the Better Price=true and Better Price Difference in Points=0 settings in the receiver side, in order to copy but only at the same or better price these trades in the receiver side.

I am in the final stages of extensive testing as we speak, to make sure that everything will run smoothly with the new version of LTC.

Have a nice day.

Thank you for your quick response. Any thoughts on my suggestion below? thanks

This is a very personalized request Eric and requires a news filter as well, something that is not in my immediate plans.

I will keep it in my future update list, but its not going to be in the upcoming update.

I will keep that in mind, thank you.

Hi Eleni,

When in Self-Copier mode, 'Symbols to Copy', 'Symbols not to Copy', and 'Max Receiver Account Symbols' don't work. These settings work fine in Receiver mode. I hope you can take a  look at it. Thanks!
