Hi

You all coders ;>)

I want this to happen in sideways markets to minimize size of losses but my code skills are below par.

// Stops and targets
IF pPROFIT =< 10
THEN SET STOP pLOSS 0
ENDIF

SET STOP pLOSS 50
SET TARGET pPROFIT 250

Hi @OMXet

Is it the intention that you measure the “Range” of the sideways movement and when it is too narrow / small that you then set your stop loss to zero …?

Hi @OMXet

You can then use “Close-TradePrice” to see if your profit is larger than 10.
Instead of “Set Stop pLoss 0” you can set the “Set Stop” to the level of the “TradePrice”… (BreakEven)
```
If Close - TradePrice > 10 then
Set Stop Price TradePrice
Set Target pProfit 250
Else
Set Stop pLoss 50
Set Target pProfit 250
EndIf
```
