Example: An enter long is opened at 100. Using a 5% profit target, the trade will exit if the high of any bar reaches 105.

Have you also fixed this? (same request)

=========

Please add this feature:

SL and TP in % value from entry in builder (like the feature in Algo-wizard)

for assets with huge changes, SL and TP in pips makes no sense.
As an example, when BTC where 500 $, SL of 10,000 pips (using MT5 setting) was 100$ which is 20% of price.
But nowadays that BTC is 20,000$, that 10,000 pips which is 100$, is just 0.5%.
So it is impossible to make long-term strategies using fixed SL & PT.
But if it was the ability to have SL and TP as percent, it can be used to create strategies working long-term.

This feature exists in Algo-wizard, but not in builder.
Please add it, and you will see lot of users using it soon!
