Trailing Stops

[jposeyx2]

How can we install a trailing stop utility that will run without closing the EA that is running ?

[William Roeder]

Open a second chart and put your trailing stop EA on it.

Wow...

That will definitely work but it's a hassle to do that on every chart.

Per https://www.mql5.com/en/docs/runtime

Maximum one Expert Advisor, one script and unlimited number of indicators can operate in one chart.

So if you write your trailing stop utility as a script, you can keep your EA running.

Not sure if this is true on MT4.

Or run 1 EA which will trail the orders (all symbols).
