I use many products from Vladislav, the utilities are exceptional even if they require a bit of patience to find the right settings based on their use. Each reviewed utility is used in my real account. Vladislav is a kind and helpful person for any help required. Great Vladislav !!

This EA is excellent, it can really save and protect the trade.
Author is very helpful
after a few months of trial, Safety Lock can really help to protect the positions
However, sometimes the recovery zone will have problem in range market.
may I request a parameter that can control the Max Hedge Cycle? Safety Lock is great, but sometimes the swing market will cause unlimited hedging orders and big max drawdown. I hope the hedging order number is under control. For example, if I set Max 3 Hedge orders, the original position is buy, then there will be max sell, buy, sell, no more. After that, Safety Lock will disable the pending order function. Is it possible to add this in next update? Safety Lock will become perfect if this para is included. Thanks in advance.

- Added a new block of work:
TPWCM EXTRA SETS Actions when the Source position is closed
TPWCM_Use = false; // TPWCM_Use -> Use this block
TPWCM_StopLossWhenCloseSource = 0; // TPWCM_StopLossWhenCloseSource -> Setup StopLoss after close Source

TPWCM_BreakEven = false; // TPWCM_BreakEven -> Setup Breakeven after close Source
TPWCM_LevelWLoss = 0; // TPWCM_LevelWLoss -> Distance from OpenPrice to profitable SL
TPWCM_LevelProfit = 0; // TPWCM_LevelProfit -> Number of points gained by pos to use BE
- Added new filter block:
LockOnlyLossPosPoint = 0; // LockOnlyLossPosPoint -> Min loss for open Pending Order
LockOnlyProfPosPoint = 0; // LockOnlyProfPosPoint -> Min profit for open Pending Order
TPWCM EXTRA SETS Stops when Source Close Pos
When the block is turned on: If the source is closed, then the SAFETYLOCK position will not be closed.
Instead, a trailing stop or breakeven is activated.
Those. instead of closing a SAFETYLOCK position, you have the opportunity to enable a trailing stop and follow the position further.
Trailing stop settings are separate in this case. And it turns on only when this position source is closed.
Attention: Pending orders that are not activated will be deleted!
The TPWCM block works after the initial position is closed, but the SAFETYLOCK position will not be closed and a stop loss / take profit / trailing stop will be set on it
TPWCM_TakeProfitWhenCloseSource
parameter for setting the take-profit for SAFETYLOCK positions that remain after the source is closed;
After closing the source position, it is possible, without closing the SAFETYLOCK position, to set a take profit for it from the closing price of the source;
TPWCM_TakeProfitOnlyToProfitZone
When enabled, true - the advisor sets take profit, after closing the source - only in the profitable zone.
If, after closing the source position, the SAFETYLOCK position is at a loss, then the take profit will not be set until it is in profit;
If disabled, false - the advisor will place a take profit in any case, even in a losing zone.
TPWCM_TakeProfitOnlyToProfitZone = true means that the take profit will be set only when the SAFETYLOCK position is in profit.
TakeProfit (when installed) will be in profit.
For instance:
If the SAFETYLOCK position is at a loss of -30 points and you set take profit = 10 points, then when you close the source position, the take profit will be set at the level of -20 points (loss).
This function sets the take profit only when the take profit level is in profit.
TPWCM_StopLossWhenCloseSource
the parameter for setting the stop loss for SAFETYLOCK positions that remain after the source is closed;
TPWCM_TrailingStopUSE
Enable trailing stop Breakeven on SAFETYLOCK positions after closing trades in the source;
difference between TrailingStopUSE and TPWCM_TrailingStopUSE
TrailingStopUSE is always used. that is, it works constantly.
If you enable it TrailingStopUSE = true, then SAFETYLOCK positions will always be with a trailing stop.
If TPWCM_TrailingStopUSE = true, then trailing stop is enabled only when the original position is closed.
Only then will the SAFETYLOCK position include a trailing stop.
Trailing stop works only in the profitable zone.
This means that the trailing stop starts working only when the position already has a profit in TPWCM_TrailingStop points.
TPWCM_TrailingStop
Trailing stop distance;
TPWCM_TrailingStep
Trailing stop step;
TPWCM_BreakEven
Enable breakeven on SAFETYLOCK positions after closing trades in the source
TPWCM_LevelWLoss
Set stop loss at the open price + - TPWCM_LevelWLoss points;
TPWCM_LevelProfit
Set the breakeven when the position is in profit TPWCM_LevelProfit points;
LockOnlyLossPosPoint
Locking only those positions for which the current loss is less than the specified loss in points (indicated with a minus),
0 - disabled.
LockOnlyProfPosPoint
Locking only those positions for which the current profit is greater than the set profit in points,
0 - disabled.

v19.6062019.06.09
- Update EAPADPRO v 28
- Added DynamicStopOrderDelta = dynamic distance parameter:
Allows you to set a different distance of pending order, depending on the lot of the protected position.
With DynamicStopOrderDelta >0: The Higher the lot, the closer the pending order distance!
With DynamicStopOrderDelta <0: The higher the lot, the further the pending order distance!
DynamicStopOrderDelta is set to a position with a volume of 1 lot.
For example:
With DynamicStopOrderDelta = 100:
If the lot (volume) of your position is 1 lot, then the StopOrderDeltaifUSEe distance will be = 100 points;
If the lot (volume) of your position is 0.1 lot, then the StopOrderDeltaifUSEe distance will be = 1000 points;
If the lot (volume) of your position will be 0.01 lot, then the StopOrderDeltaifUSEe distance will be = 10,000 points;
With DynamicStopOrderDelta = -100:
If the lot (volume) of your position is 1 lot, then the StopOrderDeltaifUSEe distance will be = 100 points;
If the lot (volume) of your position is 0.1 lot, then the StopOrderDeltaifUSEe distance will be = 10 points;
If the lot (volume) of your position is 0.01 lot, then the StopOrderDeltaifUSEe distance will be = 1 point;

v18.8302018.08.30
Update EAPADPRO v20
v18.7182018.07.30
The functions Close_One_if_Safety_More_profitable and Close_One_if_Safety_Closed_In_Profit have been updated.
When using NumberofStopOrder> 1, the profit of SafetyLock positions is calculated from the amount of the profit of all positions according to the ticket of the main position.
The function Close_One_if_Safety_More_profitable is imenen.
Now the closing of the main position and SAFETYLOCK positions occurs only when the amount of profit of these positions is greater or equal to Close_One_if_Safety_More_profitable_Dollars (With NumberofStopOrder> 1)
To get the results of previous versions, set Close_One_if_Safety_More_profitable_Dollars = 0.
The function Close_One_if_Safety_Closed_In_Profit is changed.
Now the closing of the main position occurs only when the amount of profit of the closed positions SAFETYLOCK and the main position is greater than or equal to Close_One_if_Safety_Closed_In_Profit_Dollars.
All orders and positions of SAFETYLOCK are closed.
If both Close_One_if_Safety_More_profitable and Close_One_if_Safety_Closed_In_Profit functions are enabled,
then the total profit is calculated from the closed positions SAFETYLOCK and positions SAFETYLOCK, which are still open. (Actual for NumberofStopOrder> 1)
The profit amount of SAFETYLOCK must be greater than or equal to Close_One_if_Safety_More_profitable_Dollars + Close_One_if_Safety_Closed_In_Profit_Dollars., Than the main position.
Added function Close_One_if_Safety_Closed
If the position SAFETYLOCK was closed for any reason (manual close, takeprofit, trailing stop), then the main position will also be closed.
The variable StopOrderDeltaifReopen is added to the ReopenClosedSafetyOrders block
StopOrderDeltaifReopens - The distance to set the pending order SAFETYLOCK after reopening the order.
If StopOrderDeltaifReopens = 0, then the distance = StopOrderDeltaifUSEe (old version)
The price for setting a pending order will be calculated from the current price.
v18.62018.04.24
- Update for the information panel EAPADPRO v2.0;
- If the SPECIFID_Symbol_Monitoring parameter is not set and SymbolMonitoring = SPECIFID_SYMBOLs, then the EA monitors the currency pair it is attached to.

Close_One_if_Safety_Closed_In_Profit - close the original position if the SafetyLock position was closed with profit covering the current loss of the original position;
Close_One_if_Safety_Closed_In_Profit_Dollars - profit in USD to cover the original position;
Close_One_if_Safety_More_profitable - close the original position if the profitable SafetyLock position covers the current loss of the original position;
Close_One_if_Safety_More_profitable_Dollars - profit in USD to cover the original position;
v17.9662017.11.10
Fixed error in Buy Stop order modification
v17.9582017.11.01

Fixed an error than caused repeated modification of stop loss/take profit of the original position.
Updated the timer function. In case the timer does not start, the EA operates based on ticks.
v17.9462017.10.19
Fixed an error related to the list of magic numbers.
SPECIFID_Symbol_Monitoring - added the ability to create a comma-separated list of symbols to be monitored.
v17.3242017.04.10
- Added the Close_One_if_Safety_Closed_In_Profit parameter, which closes the original position, if the Safety position was closed in profit covering the current loss of the original position.
For example, Close_One_if_Safety_Closed_In_Profit=true MNLOT=2.
As soon as the LOCK triggers and the Safety position closes by take profit, the original position will be closed.
- Added the Close_One_if_Safety_More_profitable parameter, which closes the original position, if the Safety position is more profitable, covering the current loss of the original position.
For example, Close_One_if_Safety_More_profitable=true MNLOT=2.
As soon as the LOCK triggers and the Safety position is more profitable, both the Safety and the original positions will be closed.
- Added the ModifyOrdPend_STEP pending - trailing step for pending orders when the ModifyOrdPend function is enabled
- Added the MilliSecondsTimerForMonitoring parameter - the number of milliseconds of the algorithm execution (by default, 1000 = 1 second)
- The Magic_Monitoring parameter has been updated. It is now possible to specify a list of magic numbers (separated by a comma) to be monitored.
For example:
Magic_Monitoring= -1 means that all magic numbers will be monitored
Magic_Monitoring= 0 means that manual trades will be monitored
Magic_Monitoring= 555,777 means that magic numbers 555 and 777 will be monitored
- Added monitoring filtering by the Comment_Monitoring comment. This option filters deal for placing locks for positions with the comment matching Comment_Monitoring
For example:
Comment_Monitoring="" - monitors all trades, regardless of the comment

- Added a breakeven function
MovingInWLUSE - transfer the position to breakeven;
LevelWLoss - transfer the stop loss to +LevelWLoss points;
LevelProfit - when the trade gains LevelProfit points of profit;
- Fixed the error with placing pending orders on their positions when the SafetyPosMonitoring is enabled and more than 1 position in different directions are present in the market.
- Fixed the error with Magic_Monitoring, when setting a Magic_Monitoring value other than "-1"
The EA made this error in such functions as: CloseOneifStopsActive, Remove_TAKEPROFIT_ofOriginalifStopsActive, Remove_STOPLOSS_ofOriginalifStopsActive
- Fixed the error with modification of Take Profit when using the ModifyOrdPend parameter
v17.2122017.02.20
Improved EAPADPRO
- Added two options:
Remove_TAKEPROFIT_ofOriginalifStopsActive - remove the take profit of the original position, if the SafetyLock pending order was triggered;
Remove_STOPLOSS_ofOriginalifStopsActive - remove the stop loss of the original position, if the SafetyLock pending order was triggered;
It allows to "hard" lock two positions by removing the stop loss and take profit. It creates a "safe lock", which will not be unlocked if the original position was closed by its stop loss or take profit.
v17.1232017.01.27
- Added the EAPADPRO information panel
Details on the panel in our blog: https://www.mql5.com/en/blogs/post/687140
v16.9192016.10.11
Added two new options for filtering trades, where safety stop orders need to be placed
Min_Lot_Monitoring - minimum lot for the EA to monitor, if 0 - parameter is disabled;
Max_Lot_Monitoring - maximum lot for the EA to monitor, if 0 - parameter is disabled;
For example, you need to use the current SafetyLock EA for protecting positions which accumulated a large lot, such as after using martingale. The lot for which an opposite stop order should be placed = 0.16, at the same time the EA must not touch the positions less than 0.16. To do that, set the parameter to: Min_Lot_Monitoring =0.16;
For example, you need to lock all positions with lot sizes from 0.1 to 0.25, to do that, set the parameters to:
Min_Lot_Monitoring = 0.1;
Max_Lot_Monitoring = 0.25;

SymbolMonitoring = ONLY_CURRENT_SYMBOL = Monitor only the current symbol. The EA will monitor and maintain only trades on the symbol the EA is set on;
SymbolMonitoring = SPECIFID_SYMBOL = Monitor only the trades on the symbol specified in SPECIFID_Symbol_Monitor. For example, EURUSD - then the EA will only maintain the trades on the EURUSD symbol;
This tool is really very useful for protecting your account from bursting. You must tweak continuously to understand all it's function. Patience is the key to fully understand it. To the author, please consider making the Pending order in virtual mode as this would prevent on some brokers to flag this EA having hyperactivity due to the constant of modifying it's price due to trailing activity. Also if possible make this EA have TP and SL points all is in virtual mode and will hide from some unscrupulous broker's manipulation during high news impact. Just my 2 cents of advice.
Reply from ExpForex: Hello. Thank you for the review and suggestions. These may be virtual positions. I agree that many brokers interfere with the work of advisors. But I want to say that at the time of the news release, even a position may not open due to requotes. (This often happens with both stop loss and take profit). I have a mechanism for virtual orders. I need to think about it.

I haven't enough experience yet with all functions, but IS A SERIOUS TOOL! If you know about lock and hedging /covering positions, you will test the cost difference between the stop loss and a well configured lock. I bet on the lock. It's all about RRR, this is the tool for you.

Safetylok is designed to monitor and manage both the original transaction (deal) and the corresponding pending order (or activated transaction(deal)).
As such, all settings are programmed to independently track each pair.
If you need to close positions based on a total profit, this can only be achieved using an additional program. For instance,
I recommend my CLP PAD panel, which is specifically designed for closing positions when a total profit or loss target is reached.
