Hey does anyone have a stoploss break even strategy i can use. One that I can set the value for how many pips price mush move forward in order to trigger the SLBE, and a value to adjust the SLBE by a few pips from entry. thanks. |

I tried taking the code from the links u provided and pasting it into a text and saving it as a jfx file, it doesnt seem to work. Before i setup my pamm account, my IB ( molecule6) had a stragety software that had this feature) but it doesnt work since then. IS there someone who can rip out the SLBE code for me.

The exception tells what needs to be changed: OneOrderBreakEvenSLThreads class should be saved in a file called OneOrderBreakEvenSLThreads.java. Or alternatively rename the class to SLBE. |

This is as designed. Consider using the strategy in Historical Tester to see the stop loss updates. For the historical period, please refer to the post where the strategy was originally posted. If you have any other particular Break Even algorithm in mind, consider making a strategy request in the following forum section: viewforum.php?f=112 |

I came across this piece of coding, close to what i want. Only problem is moves the stoploss to break even after 25 pips, I tried looking at the code to see if i can change that value, but cant seem to see where it is. would u know? thanks. Quote: /*

There is nothing in the source code suggesting such behavior. Could you please provide in detail how the Break even should be implemented in a strategy? |

thats what i dont get, ive tried it in the demo and it works. Well like in my old strategy. there needs to be 2 values 1. Stoploss Break Even Trigger (SLBET) 2. Stoploss Break Even (SLBE) So lets say i place a long trade at 1.0000, stoploss is 0.9980. the value of SLBET=40pips and SLBE=1pip. So if price moved to 1.0040, it will tell the strategy to move the stoploss from .9980 to 1.0001. |

Hey, it working fine, only problem i notice, is on the strategy's first attempt to move the stoploss to breakeven, this message pops up and it will not move the stoploss until you click OK. after that it runs fine, itll trigger the stoploss automatically. Anyways to get rid of this message box? thanks. |
