I like the mvastop4.lua, but to many times price will come back to mva touch and then take off again. I hope you can add another option with it that would stop out at the brake and close of the mva. So #1 keep your touch of mva as opption 1 and add option 2 brake and close of mva,sma,or ema.

Thanks for your time

One way to prevent stop out on a bounce short term, till strategy can be modified. Set trailing mva price to high (going short) or low (going long) instead of close.

You have replied saying it is possible to offset the stop level by a user defined number of pips. Could you please either tell me how to do this or modify the strategy to achieve this.

Many thanks in anticipation,

Happy New year to all,

I have been experimenting with Wilders Moving Average offset by + or - 20 pips as a trailing stop strategy. On a 1H timeframe it seems a good compromise for maximising profit.
Could you please modify this moving average stop order to accommodate this.

Last Aug 5, 2012 I put up a post asking if another option could be added to the mvastop4.lua FIFO, but have not heard or seen anything yet, so here is another post that may help. I hope you can add another option that would stop out at the brake and close of the MA. So, # 1. keep your touch of MA as opption 1 and add option 2 brake and close of the MA, and option 3 brake and close of the MA by a set number of bars or you could just set it to two.

Thanks for your time

This would be perfect if the Averages indicator were used so we could use a wider variety of MA's to use as the stop level. *crosses his fingers*

Hello, I am wondering if there are any stop loss strategies that only exit on a close of a candle below a certain level in order to avoid stop hunts and fake outs. If any one is aware of a strategy that is able to do that or is interested in developing could you please let me know.
Thank you,
Campbell
