QUOTE(geisha @ Apr 2 2010, 03:42 PM) can anybody teach me how to do/set trailing stop? any script needed? or any web to look at? are u using MT4? If yes, just right click on your order (pending/floating), point to "Trailing Stop" and select or enter number of pips u wish to trail. Bear in mind, your PC/laptop MUST be online in order for your trailing stop to work. Good luck & profitable trading

QUOTE(Aloong @ Apr 2 2010, 06:56 PM) Is it true? if i set my trailing stop, after that turn off my pc and go to sleep, what will happen to the TS? Does that defeat the purpose of TS ? So trader dun have to look at the pc all day long? Not sure about other platform, if I am not mistaken for MT4 platform, yes, u have to leave your PC/laptop online. Of course, u don't need to keep looking at your PC for your TS to work  , set it and leave it online, and u can goto sleep liao. Your MT4 platform will monitor the price and trail the stop accordingly as long as it is connected to the Server.

QUOTE(aliqueamyrei @ Apr 5 2010, 09:57 AM) Just want to get some clarification. I've read somewhere that TS & SL can be set either in your computer or the broker server. If set in your computer, then u must online to maintain the SL/TS. If set in the server, then no need to online. As far as I remember, Marketiva set TS/SL in their server because I trade with them once and I leave my trade run with SL/TS and both are still valid when I check at cybercafe. Better ask the broker for confrimation tho. Thanks for the info. But, as I mentioned earlier, I'm referring to broker with MT4 platform, is Marketiva running on Mt4? No, rite?
