when adding to a losing/winning trade, it changes the take profit
15 Nov 2024, 00:34


100 leverage

order 1:  using 1% of my account

buy at 30

take profit 1%

price drops to 29

order 2: now here is the problem, when I rebuy at 29 with a take profit of 1%, it will say that it needs to reach 2% to make the same amount of money as order 1

why is this happening?

100 leverage

1% of account, take profit 1%

the price drops, I re enter with 1% of account, take profit 1%

however now the price need to reach 2% to give me back 1%

why is Ctrader doing this? maybe because the drawdown was too high?
