Very interesting plasma, but... — This may help lower intratrade drawdown, but aren't you increasing the risk of the "Death Trade", the real enemy of this system. If the market began sideways oscillation that didn't trigger either trade to ...

Hmmm... — It's doable, but you have to be careful because I think a "second set" with the same initial price will automatically close everything. It will think it found a closed trade from this set (really last set based on initial price) and ...

Forex Saint, 1. That is what I've put in the EA already (almost). I have two strategies to prevent the death trade. A low-water warning mark in which we look for any profit (breakeven) and exit. And a high-water mark in which we do what you are ...
