Trailing Stop Loss

A TS of 5 is fairly tight...

IIRC - some brokers have a <cant put stop closer to price than n pips>?

Try with 8 pips & see if it works and let us know

TIA

My trailing stop loss of 5 pips through my expert advisor works fine when I set the expert advisor on long trades only on my alpari account. However when I set the EA to short trades only the TSL of 5 pips does not trigger. Can a broker have different limits for minimum TSL for long trades and different for short trades.

No

The problem as now stated implies a Bid/Ask issue in the code - in that the the spread is 'using up' some of your trailing stop margin?

Try it with 8 or post the lines that set the TS

Hi Ashok - I'm looking for a similar expert advisor. Could you please publish your code here? Thanks!

Hi,

Use "MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_STOPLEVEL)" to get minimum distance in pips for stop loss/take profit orders.

This is very useful Function! Thank You very much! Thank You!
