As traders, we often focus on our entry points, but let's not forget about the importance of a solid exit strategy. The Master Exit Plan is a collection of straightforward strategies designed to help you effectively manage your open trades and pending orders.

Important Note: This is not an Expert Advisor that opens trades for you—it’s all about managing what you already have on the table.

Here’s a breakdown of the exit strategies you can utilize:

  • Equity Target: This feature helps safeguard your account's equity in a conservative manner.
  • Hard Stop-Loss: Set a fixed, visible stop-loss for every trade you enter.
  • Hidden Stop-Loss: Implement a fixed, hidden stop-loss on your trades to minimize risk while remaining discreet.
  • Dynamic Hard Stop-Loss: This stop-loss moves along with the price, allowing you to trade as if you have no stop-loss in place. You can dive deeper into this game-changing concept in the e-book Uncharted Stratagems: Unknown Depths of Forex Trading, which also includes more than a dozen innovative ideas worth exploring.
  • Hidden Dynamic Stop-Loss: As the name implies, this is a concealed version of the dynamic stop-loss.
  • Trailing Stop: This isn’t your ordinary trailing stop method. It introduces a unique twist, triggering the trailing stop only when a specific percentage of positive profit is achieved, ensuring you secure some positive pips.
  • Trail Pending Order: This feature trails stop orders to optimize your profitable positions.

By incorporating these strategies into your trading routine, you can significantly enhance your ability to exit trades effectively, protecting your profits and minimizing losses. Happy trading!
