Break Even Helper for MT4 – Simple SL to Entry Utility
Break Even Helper for MetaTrader 4 is a compact and effective tool that helps traders protect their open trades by automatically moving the Stop Loss (SL) to the entry price when a trade reaches a user-defined profit level (in points).
Designed for risk-conscious traders, this utility simplifies SL management without relying on complex trailing systems or custom strategies.

How It Works
After loading the utility onto a chart, it continuously checks for open trades. When a trade on that symbol reaches the specified ProfitPoints , the SL is automatically set to the same price as the trade’s open price (entry). This allows traders to reduce potential losses while letting profits run.
There are no trailing mechanisms, no trade execution features, and no alerts – just clean, effective break-even logic.
