Download script
This script is designed to automate the management of your active trades by dynamically adjusting the "Stop Loss" levels based on real-time market movements. Instead of letting your trades sit with static protection, this tool continuously scans your open positions and recalculates specific safety boundaries.
Here is a detailed breakdown of how the logic operates:
How the Script Works
The script functions as an automated monitor that constantly reviews every open trade in your account. It performs the following actions:
- Targeted Monitoring: The system specifically identifies trades that match the current currency pair you are viewing on your chart. This ensures that the script does not interfere with trades on other markets, allowing for independent management of various assets.
- Buy Position Adjustment: When the script detects an active Buy (Long) position, it automatically moves the Stop Loss to a specific distance below the current market price (specifically, 5 points/pips away from the current "Bid" price). This acts as a dynamic floor for your trade.
- Sell Position Adjustment: Conversely, when the script detects an active Sell (Short) position, it automatically moves the Stop Loss to a specific distance above the current market price (5 points/pips away from the current "Ask" price). This creates a dynamic ceiling for your trade.
- Preservation of Other Settings: The logic is designed to modify only the Stop Loss level. It leaves your original entry price, your Take Profit targets, and other order details completely untouched.
The Practical Outcome
Essentially, this script acts as an automated "buffer" manager. Rather than keeping a Stop Loss at a fixed price point from the moment you entered the trade, it keeps the protection "floating" near the current market price. This ensures that your safety net is always relative to where the market is currently trading, rather than where it was when the trade first opened.
