I am trying to make a simple Trade manager EA. Basically which does the following.
If entering at market, then
the Stop loss is set to 1xATR (7)
the Take Profit is set to 2 x ATR (7)
the EA will close 50% position once price hits 1x ATR (7) in profit
and moved the stop loss to break even.
I have tried to make one but bit lost.

I put 1000 in the comments field. But it does not seem to recognise that an order has been opened manually.

Hello Jonny,
the problem is that EA Wizard uses magic numbers to recognize trades to manage.
When you enter trade manually there’s no way of specifying its magic number, such trade doesn’t have magic number.
So EA Wizard currently cannot manage trades created manually.
We’d have to add there possibility to to recognize trades by their comments instead of magic numbers.
