auto breakeven

[lindsayf]

I have followed the help instructions but my auto breakeven will not function ..at least on market replay. Is there any known problems with this..I trade off the chart with an ATM strategy.

If I want the stop to go to entry less 3 ticks (for a long trade) at a profit trigger of 5 an I correct in entering
Profit trigger = 5
Plus = -3

in the stop strategy entry box?

The auto breakeven is totally independent of the auto trail function isnt it?

thanks

lindsayf, this should do it - do you save the stop strategy and then the full ATM strategy template with the stop strategy applied before trying to trade with it on the replay charts?

ok that has made some progress but it is still doing something odd. I enter a trade with 3 contracts with a stop loss of 6 tics. I want the stop to go to E less 3 when trade is up 5 tics...When the auto breakeven triggers..it moves the stop to the desired location...but it only does it for one contract..so I end up with 2 stop losses..one at 6 and one at entry less 3. Then when TP1 is hit, the E-3 SL disappears and i am left with my original stop? Please advise. What I want is for the stop on the whole postion to go to entry less 3 tics.

Did you add the new custom stop strategy to each target you use in your ATM template? It sounds like you only added this to the first one...
