Post From: trailing stop logic

experimenting with different trailing stop logic scenarios, noticed that under move to breakeven for stop: type: trail to breakeven does not function as implemented, the step 2 is ignored or blocked somehow? Above in the ATW I have a leap frog trigger (triggered step Trail stop) that when price nears target the stop leaps from protection (supposed to be just under even) to protection of profits, this also does not function properly when Trail to breakeven is set as the breakeven method.

i have tried multiple configurations to get the stop behavior as i would like, but nothing has worked to my liking, what i would prefer is a 3 STEP move to BE, using offset in ticks triggered, currently only option 2 steps,. as constructed (with offset in ticks as BE logic) i am using the first step in main stop logic as BE, then the step amount is static and is too loose as trade progresses, need a second threshold trigger for tighter profit protection, or add a third step to BE, and then can use mainb stop logic to protect...or perhaps you can offer better solution to the trail to breakeven logic as is written, does not work properly..sadly i recall ninja trader having multiple step and trigger trail scenarios that allowed tighter control, not saying i long for NT i dont, but stop logic offered more options
