Breakeven Stop is not available as an indicator in FSB and in FST. It's only included in the MT4-FST Expert Advisor.

Its sad

I just published a newer version of FST with some major changes in the expert.
I'll test a Break Even patch and I'll publish it in two-three dais in this forum thread.

Great news Popov. I just found this amazing software yesterday and working on strategies for 2 days without sleep. Its a great stuff. I'm impatiently waiting for the patch to try my real strategies. Thanks and good luck..

Also It will be good if there is a feature to move s/l not pip by pip but according to a size of movement, like for example; if trade goes 200pip in your favor move s/l +40pips and if it moves another 200pip move another +40

Those features would make trading really easy.

Peace to all...

Where exactly should we paste the 'SetBreakEven' line codes in the FST Expert ?
(see pic)

Thanks.

I'll add Breakeven Stop to FSB and FST later.

For now you can add this to the expert alone.

Something like:

SetBreakevenStop(symbol)
{
    int breakeven = 60;

    if (long position)
         if (bit - posOpenPrice >= breakeven * point)
              if (posSL < bit)
                  set SL to bit;

    if (short position)
         if (posOpenPrice - ask >= breakeven * point)
             if (posSL > ask)
                 set SL to ask;
}

Call this at line 262 below  AdjustTrailingStop(symbol[0]);

i agree with zenoni; this feature is very important in trading. its the essential of my trading system. hope to hear you soon because i dont know programming and to use expert.

thanks..

         if (posOpenPrice - ask >= breakeven * point)
             if (posSL > ask)
                 set SL to ask;
}

Call this at line 262 below  AdjustTrailingStop(symbol[0]);

Parameters:

- Stop-loss: 50
- Take profit: 100
- Breakeven stop-loss: 30

This may work in such a way that if I set initial stop-loss at 50 pips and take profit at 100 pips and the position is going to be profitable e.g. position have 30 pips in profit then the FST/FSB will move the stop-loss at breakeven (opening price).

In this way the losses will be limited and the trading will be more profitable.

*************************************

Breakeven trailing-stop will be a bit more profitable.

- Stop-loss: 50
- Take profit: 100
- Breakeven trailing-stop: 30

If the position will reach a 30 pip in profit then the trailing stop at 30 pips will be put at breakeven. No more loss, only profits.
