What is a Trailing Stop and why do we really need it?

PowerScalper Expert-Advisor Trading Strategies Trailing Stop
A trailing stop is designed to protect gains by enabling a trade to remain open and continue to profit as long as the price is moving in your favor direction. The system closes the trade if the price changes by a specified pip amount.

Once the Trailing Stop has locked-in, you can't loose the trade anymore, since the system pulls the loss value continuously better than your market entry value.

The trade continues to grow in profit as long as the market moves in the correct direction. Once the market reverts, the Trailing Stop closes the Trade and secures the profit for you.

All trades that are closed by the Trailing Stop will be colored in red colour and will have a value set for S/L (Stop Loss) in the MT4 Terminal.

You have to switch the Trailing Stop to ON, if you want to use it in your trading strategy. Furthermore you have to set 3 values for the Trigger (when should the Trailing Stop kick-in), for the Distance (how much must the price revert to close the trade) and for the Increment (in which incremental sizes does the Trailing Stop move).

Please be aware that the Trailing Stop will correlate with the CFD-Underlying that you are trading, as well with the lot sizes you are using.

Trading Gold (XAUUSD) will need complete different Trailing Stop settings than trading EURUSD or GBPUSD. Same with other instruments like Silver, DAX40, SP500, and so on.

You have to optimise the Trailing Stop values in a demo account therefore first for the instrument that you will be trading.

Once you have the right settings, the Trailing Stop will be very effective in your trading schedule since you will see that the bot will close most trades much faster with Trailing Stop than without.
