Super Trailing Stop ZST

Super Trailing Stop — ZST

Super Trailing Stop is a trade management Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 5. It does not open trades. It manages positions that are already open by automatically moving the Stop Loss as price moves in favor of the trade.

The product works on any symbol configured by the user, including XAUUSD and BTCUSD. It can manage positions opened manually or by any other Expert Advisor running on the same account.

How It Works

When a position reaches the minimum profit defined by the user, the EA moves the Stop Loss to the entry price, eliminating the risk of loss on that trade. From that point, the Stop Loss continues to follow the price at the configured distance, locking in profit progressively until the position is closed by the trailing stop or manually by the trader.

Breakeven

Once the position profit in dollars reaches the Minimum Profit USD parameter, the Stop Loss is moved to the open price plus a small margin to cover spread. This protects the trade from turning into a loss.

Trailing Stop

After breakeven is set, the Stop Loss follows the price at the distance defined in the Trailing Distance parameter. The Stop Loss only moves forward, never backward. It advances in steps defined by the Trailing Step parameter to avoid unnecessary modifications.

Profit Target

An optional daily profit target in dollars can be configured. When the account equity reaches the target amount above the starting balance, the EA deactivates automatically. This feature is disabled by default.

Aggressive Scalping Mode

When this mode is enabled, the trailing distance is reduced to 1.0 and the step to 0.3, suitable for fast trades on low timeframes. This mode is disabled by default.

The product displays a dark mode panel on the chart showing the following information in real time.

• EA status: Active or Inactive
