Published 27.05.2015 at 09.59 AM.

Dear friends, I’m aware of your keen interest in articles about functional features of MetaTrader 4. For sure I’ll expand on this topic.

Of course, needed indicators should be added to a corresponding folder in your platform.

Thank you for taking your time to read my post. Today, let’s consider an important and practical issue on stop orders. What is a stop order? What is special about them? Why do traders need stop orders?
