Is there a way to use an EA to create a trailing stop, buy or sell, on pending orders? Not to close a position, but to open them.
What I am seeing a lot is that I can almost spot a reversal, but miss the time and suffer a bit before it turns my way. For instance, when I see a supposed bottom in the GBPJPY, I'd like to be able to place a 50 pip buy stop that trails the downward movement while it is still going on, but lock it in should it move a good amount upward.
I should learn to write the darn things.
For those that write EA's, where is a good place to learn from scratch?
