Simple EaslyLanguage Question -- stop loss

Postby Kingjelly » 17 Mar 2011

Hi,

This should be simple, but I am having a hard time with it. I want a stoploss strategy that after I am in profit by a certain amount that I want to set my stop loss 1 tick below the low of the last completed bar. Can anyone help me please?

Thanks

Dear Kingjelly,

Please try to use the following code:

Code: Select all

if marketposition <= 0 then condition1 = false;

if marketposition > 0 and close > entryprice + 10 points then begin
condition1 = true;
value1 = low[1] - 1 point;
end;

if ( condition1 )
sell next bar at value1 stop;
