- Version: 1.50
- Updated: 12 February 2019
Setting Take profit (TP) to fixed level does not optimize your trade while using trailing stop requires traders to stay all time to screen.
Vanesa Trailing Stop does trail stop by preset scenarios automatically.
Vanesa Trailing Stop provides 3 (maximum) TP levels in points. For example: Level 1< Level 2 < Level 3.
Traders provide value of trailing stop level for each TP level as parameters.
Whenever total gain of a trade in points reaches the first TP level, EA will start doing trailing stop with trail stop level1.
When total gain reaches higher TP level, EA will trail stop with corresponding trailing stop level.
You can set small value of trailing stop level for low level of TP and bigger value for trailing stop in higher level of TP.
Outstanding features:
- Automatic trailing stop: it does not require trader to screen chart all the time. Trail stop will start automatically by preset scenario.
- Setting trailing stop in multiple levels: each trailing stop level has it own trailing stop value. Trader can increase trailing stop level on higher TP level.
