    Hello, is it possible to combine a breakeven stop with an RSI value? If the price is above / below the purchase price and the RSI12 closes above / below 70/30, the stop should be drawn to breakeven. In %. Could someone code that, please?

    There you go:

    IF Not OnMarket THEN
    ExitrPrice = 0
ENDIF
MyRSI = Rsi[12](close)
IF (LongOnMarket AND close > PositionPrice  AND MyRSI > 70) OR (ShortOnMarket AND close < PositionPrice  AND MyRSI < 30) THEN
   ExitPrice = PositionPrice
ENDIF
IF ExitPrice THEN
   SELL      AT ExitPrice STOP
   EXITSHORT AT ExitPrice STOP
ENDIF

    I can’t understand what you mean by “in %“. Breakeven is the entry price.

    Ah, my mistake. Then I said, for example: Breakeven + 5 * Pipsize

    But in percent?

    Ok, there you go:

    PointsToKeep = 5 * PipSize     //save 5 pips beyond breakeven
IF Not OnMarket THEN
    ExitPrice = 0
ENDIF
MyRSI = Rsi[12](close)
IF LongOnMarket AND close > PositionPrice AND MyRSI > 70 THEN
   ExitPrice = PositionPrice + PointsToKeep
ELSIF ShortOnMarket AND close < PositionPrice AND MyRSI < 30 THEN
   ExitPrice = PositionPrice - PointsToKeep
ENDIF
IF ExitPrice THEN
   SELL      AT ExitPrice STOP
   EXITSHORT AT ExitPrice STOP
ENDIF

    If you want to use a %, you can replace the first line with the following:

    MyFormula    = PositionPrice           //or Range, or abs(close - PositionPrice), etc...
PointsToKeep = MyFormula / 100 * 0.05  //0.05%

    you can use any formula of your choice in line 1.
