    Hello, after following the discussion on the forum about trailing stops, I think this is way too complicated, so I made a simplified version. We start with a trail stop a few points below our entry price, so that if things start immediately against us, we keep a good mood. If the trade comes our way, the trail stop will be increased. Furthermore, we always sell our trades “at market” so that we do not have to take restrictions from the broker into account (especially when announcing important economic data, for example)

    Hi Deathmetal,

    thanks for this. I’ve experienced problem with stop loss, especially stop limit order refused by broker during the trailing. is it this kind of problem that it overcomes? thanks

    Interesting. I will amend my trailing “stops” without orders at market.

    Using “market orders” in a trailing stop is fine, but only on a fast time frame… you don’t want to wait too long for your  Trailing Stop Market Orders to be executed…
