Automated Trialing stop question

New comment
 
Does the time frame of the chart having anything to do with the automated trailing stop changing the Stop loss order on a trade ?

ATL (auto trailing stop) from menu in MT4 software, select the trade (RH Mouse click), trailng stop, then pip selection.
I am NOT refering to a EA trailing stop.

Say I have a trailing stop of 40 pips on two trades on two different charts
A trade has a chart at H1
Another trade has a chart of 15M

Does the automated trailing stop change after the completion of the build of the bar for 15 minutes and respectively 1 hour for each trade or does the trailing stop adjust on every tick within the trade terminal ??

How and when does automated trailing stop adjusted ?

Thanks
 

AFAIK, the trailing stop adjusts on every tick.


CAVEAT: The trailing stop is "client-based," meaning that you have to keep your connection (and computer) on for it to adjust.



OOPS!! Just saw that this thread is TWO YEARS old!! ;)
