EA take profit and stop loss in percentage

 

Good evening you all,

I have this Expert Advisor in which I can set take profit and stop loss in points. I want to change this parameter with the percentage of the investiment. For example, when the profit is at 25% of the amount invested or when the loss is at -70% of the amount invested the investiment will close. I hope someone will help me. Have a good day.

All eyes were again on Europe with expectation that an Italian headline could wobble markets yet again. The fear was obvious with volumes again low, but today we did see a small bopunce in some core indices. The FTSE MIB recovered 2% of yesterdays losses and that encouraged bounces in the DAX and UK FTSE. The CAC meanwhile failed to join the...
