<![CDATA[Forex Software — Account Percent Stop Indicator]]> https://forexsb.com/forum/topic/9418/account-percent-stop-indicator/ Fri, 21 Apr 2023 20:53:20 +0000 PunBB <![CDATA[Re: Account Percent Stop Indicator]]> https://forexsb.com/forum/post/74536/#p74536 This indicator is more simple you may think.

It sets a Stop Loss at a distance which makes n% loss of your account.
For example, if you have a $10000 account and use Account Percent Stop = 2%, it will set a Stop Loss to the next position equal to $200.

This indicator does not protect your account from a total loss. It sets SL for a single position.

FSB doesn't export portfolios. Indicator in the strategy/EA works only for that strategy/EA it is in.

The portfolio of EA's I am referring to is the portfolio of EA's shown in FSB in the Portfolio tab.  All these EA's are also placed on charts within my MT4 terminal.

Does this indicator just stop trading for the EA it is attached too, or does it stop trading of all EA's in the portfolio?
