Trailing stop order (sell stop/buy stop)

 

Hi guys 

Can someone help me with creating this code.

A stop order already exists (it is either a buy stop or sell stop).

It is J pips away from the current market price.

As the market moves away from the entry price by an adjustable number of pips (K pips ) ,the entry price of the stop order is modified to remain J pips away from the current market price . 

Thank you.

Welcome,

  • Usually people who cannot code do not receive free help on this forum, although it could happen if you are lucky. Be patient.
  • If you show your attempts and describe your problem clearly, you will most probably receive an answer from the community.
  • If you do not want to learn to code, that is not a problem. You can either look at the Codebase if something free already exists, or in the Market for paid products (also sometimes free).

Good luck.

I don't understand why you are placing this request.

You are a coder and supply your services on the Freelance section!

From the EAs you have on Market, this seems like a very simple task for you!

I just had a bit of burnout in my mind from doing a number of things and couldn't work it out in the current time to include it in the EA I was working on.  So I thought maybe someone had this part of code already as a function and could share it.  

No problem I will figure it tomorrow.

Thank you :)

Sorry, but I don't have anything like that because I don't use Pending Orders in my EAs.
