What to do when the algorithm recalculates on the chart

When the entries update after you've already placed an order

The algorithm updates in real time when it sees an opportunity and vice versa; you will see "Trade found" when it detects a trade with high probability, and "No trade zone" when there's no trade opportunity in the market.

Sometimes, after you place a trade, the algo will update the day after.

Here's a good rule of thumb for when you have an open/a pending order but the algo recalculates on the chart.

Situation 1

● IF the trade you placed is still pending at the time the calculation has been updated

● DO adjust your order according to the new entries

Situation 2

● IF the trade you placed is still pending at the time the calculation has disappeared

● DO leave your pending order as is and let the trade play out

Situation 3

● IF the trade you place has already opened

● DO let the trade play out and wait for them to fill TPs

** Trades shown can always be considered valid trades as long as the market is above entry zone (for longs, and vice versa for shorts). If the market starts trading beyond the entry zone (aka in drawdown), then you don't get into that

trade, if you haven't already.

** Once your trade hits TP1, make sure to move all SL from the remaining positions to entry to get out at break even- in case the market price doesn't reach the remaining TPs.

** Don't forget to adjust all of the entries, TPs, SL, and lot sizes.
