Immy - Could you explain why you locked in 1% on that EJ trade - was it simply because it had a good profit?

Good Question. The move looked too fast. And as such there was a possibility of a sharp reversal. Benefit of hindsight, I could have just sat here relaxed and trailed aims... but there you go... Hope it makes sense. and then the next move was behind swing low. and I'm out with +20 + 42. (62/20/2+.5=2.05%)

TMM: you did not reply... That EA was already shared in the posts above. But I'll attach another copy with a proper name.

This EA, can do what you asked for. e.g. you can set SL 10 pips TP 1 10pips sell half TP2 100pips sell rest or sell half of half and allow the rest to run. etc etc. and trailing option is available too.! let me know what you think...


(Imp Note: The code is not mine, nor AIMS, but just gave it a name. We are not selling it or will not sell it, its not ours)
