How to set move to auto breakeven

View Count: 42

I am having a difficult time understanding how to move my stops to breakeven automatically. I have read through the documentation on this. I still don't understand it.

E.g., I want my stop to move to breakeven automatically after 420 ticks.

I am attempting to do this through "offset in ticks triggered"

I have "BE Level Offset" set at 420

I do not know what to put in for "Trigger Offset" and it seems that number is causing the price at which my trades stop out at to differ than my normal stop I have under "targets" at 28 ticks.

What am I doing wrong?

You need to set the "Trigger Offset" to be 420.

The "BE Level Offset" is how far away from Breakeven you want Stop to move to. So if you want it exactly at breakeven, then this would be zero.

Refer to the following:
