ScalTradeAssistPro: Empowering Manual Forex Traders with Enhanced Support
The tool presents itself as a solution tailored to address specific scenarios, such as instances where brokers impose limitations on setting Stop Loss (SL) values in close proximity to the initial position value. Notably catering to the needs of scalping traders, ScalTradeAssistPro steps in with a unique capability—the ability to establish "virtual SL/TP" points.
This innovative feature calculates both the Stop Loss and Take Profit internally. As positions approach these virtual reference points, ScalTradeAssistPro intervenes by executing closing actions akin to conventional trading orders. It's this transformative functionality that justifies their virtual nature.
Elevated Features in the Professional Version:
The professional iteration of ScalTradeAssistPro offers traders an extended array of tools, including the coveted "Trailing Stop" and "Break Even" mechanisms. Notably, users gain the capability to dispatch pending orders precisely to designated levels, augmenting their tactical flexibility. Moreover, the tool's synergy with "AutoOrderModifyEA Pro" is highlighted as a potent combination, endorsed wholeheartedly by the developers.
The recommendation to explore ScalTradeAssistPro with "AutoOrderModifyEA Pro" is underscored as a prudent choice—one that's poised to yield fruitful results.
For a comprehensive understanding of its functionality and application, readers are encouraged to delve into the detailed usage description provided on the official website: ScalTradeAssistPro Official Site.

A very useful utility for scalping. I trade with two brokers, one of them has good spreads, but who requires a minimum distance of 50 ticks (5 pips) when placing a limit order - or you can place an instant order according to market price. ScaltradeAssist is a great solution, it perfectly places instant orders using virtual stop loss or take profit.
The developer also is very helpful, because one of my brokers requires to always input a (real) stop loss, I asked him to implement a functionality addressing this problem, and he added the function to place a (real) stop loss when placing the order (called HardStopLoss). Now I can make use of the VirtualStopLoss function which is great (ScalTradeAssist Pro offers a VirtualStopLoss which can be different to the HardStopLoss and which is hidden to the broker).
But even if using an ECN broker, this tool is useful because you can place orders much quicker and very convenient compared to the normal MT4 interface. Adjustments of stop loss and take profit can be made graphically by shifting lines.
Also the trailing function helps eliminate broker restrictions.
The close all button is a bit risky in my view (one time I closed all my active orders by pressing this button). In the settings, it is possible to deactivate this button, and I really recommend to do so, if you do many trades at the same time.
What could be improved is a user manual with examples. Most things can be tried out or are logic, but still I think some functions need to be explained more in detail how to make best use of the software.
Why do I still give 5 stars? The software itself offers great value for money and is really a powerful tool, which I can really recommend. Furthermore, the developer really is a helpful person.
