📌 Overview
PipsTrailing EA is a lightweight, efficient, and reliable trailing stop manager for MetaTrader 5. It automatically adjusts stop losses on your open positions as the market moves in your favor — locking in profits while giving your trades room to breathe.
No complex settings. No unnecessary features. Just a pure, functional trailing stop that works on any symbol and any timeframe.
🎯 Key Features

| Adjustable trailing logic | Three simple parameters for full control |
| Efficient execution | Only modifies SL when price moves enough — reduces broker load |
| No TP modification | Preserves your original take-profit level |
| Works on all symbols | Forex, metals, indices, crypto — any instrument |

📈 How It Works
-
Wait for profit — EA does nothing until a trade reaches TrailStartPips profit
-
Activate trailing — Once profit threshold is met, EA places a stop loss TrailDistance pips behind price
-
Step protection — Stop loss only moves when price advances by at least TrailStepPips , preventing excessive modifications
-
Never reverses — Stop loss never moves against the trade (only locks in more profit)
