Break Even
Break even moves the stop loss to the trade entry area after price has moved far enough in profit.
Inputs
| Input label | Default | What it controls |
|---|---|---|
| Enable break-even management | Off | Turns automatic break-even management on or off. |
| Break-even trigger in R | 1.0 | How far price must move in profit before break even can activate. |
| Break-even offset in pips | 0.0 | Optional offset from the exact entry price when the stop is moved. |
How It Works
An R value is based on the initial trade risk. For example, a trigger of 1.0 means price must move one initial-risk unit in profit before the EA can move the stop.
Use a small offset only when you need to account for spread, commission, or broker stop-distance rules.
Break even and partial close
Break even is independent of partial close. You can enable partial close levels and break-even management together, but test the combined behavior before live use.
