What is ProSLTP?
ProSLTP is a great little expert adviser designed to enter and exit trades only with a press of a button
from your keyboard. Also you are able to change your StopLoss and TakeProfit in real-time with no
need to open up a New Order dialog from your MT4 platform.
Below you have an image of how it should look when installed properly on your chart:
On the right bottom side of the chart you have the information about the order you can enter, and in
our case we can enter a Buy Order at Market Price. Below that you have other information like Status
of the EA, your potential value of TakeProfit and StopLoss in both pips and $, and the last row has
the Risk Reward ratio as well as the lot size which will be used when you will enter a trade. On the
bottom left side you have a control panel menu which can be accessed with either one of the buttons:
J or N (J will Scroll Up and N will Scroll Down). Before providing you more details lets take
everything in small steps.

Initialization Process
After you apply the ProSLTP to your chart you should see on the bottom right the following
information:
Please pay attention at the Status: Init - this means that the EA is initializing and soon will be
ready to be at your service :). As soon as it will change to Status: OK (see the image on the next
page) the EA will be ready to process all of your commands. If it takes too long to initialize make sure
that your MT4 is connected to broker and the markets are open.
Also make sure you have the smiling face on the top right of you chart in order for ProSLTP to
function correctly. If you do not have a smiling face, when you apply the EA check in the Common tab
of Expert Properties you have enabled the Allow live trading option.
If you have an X instead of a smiling face click on Expert Advisors button from toolbar and make
sure it will be green after you clicked it, like below:
After you click ==>

On the left bottom side of your chart you will have the Navigation MENU of the EA. It will show you
all of your open orders you have on the pair the EA is attached to. In my case I have 2 orders opened
now. You can scroll (navigate) up and down on the MENU using the following buttons from your
keyboard: J and N. As soon as you press on the J the Open New Pending Order will be active, and
so on it will highlight the next row by every press of the J button. If you click on the N it will scroll
down and highlight the row which is below the current one.
An active mode is highlighted in Yellow by default. You can customize this color in the Expert
Properties when you apply the EA to chart. Every-time you change the MENU option the text from
bottom right will also change showing you all of the detailed info you need to know about the order to
be entered or closed. For example if you would like to check more details about the first order from
the image above you need to click 3 times on J button or once on N button in order to highlight that
order and view more details about that. Check the next image in order to see how it should look like
when you highlighted that:
www.ForexProfitProtector.com
Page12
As soon as you highlight the first order (on the bottom left the one in yellow) check then the right side
where you can see that this is a SELL Order and its status is LIVE which means the order is placed
already and is in profit of 5.4 pips (the first number after the LIVE word) which is $2.16 if talking about
the profit in $ for those 5.4 pips of my order. Below that you will see the potential Take Profit and Stop
Loss of your trade in both pips and $ value. The last row shows that I have almost 1:1 Risk Reward
Ratio and the size of this order is 0.04 lots.
If you will go ahead and will drag and drop the blue line (which is for Take Profit level) or red line
(which is Stop Loss level) the SL or TP will change automatically on your MT4 platform right away
and you will also see on the right side what are those values for both pips and $, also the R/R will
change right away so you know what is the risk reward ratio of your investment.
Now if you are thinking you would like to close this order all you need to do is press the C button and
the order will be closed right away. If you are asking yourself what is the button for opening a trade
it is X (short for execute) this button is active only when you are in Open New Order mode (for both
pending and market types). Below you have all of the commands you need to know for using this
great EA. Each command is a press of a button from your keyboard, nothing else, as simple as that.
The information from the chart will guide you if you are doing everything ok or not. Just make sure
you keep an eye on the Status: messages from bottom right which will tell you if you are doing
everything ok.

C Execution button to close a trade. As soon as you press it the highlighted order will be closed
right away. When you have a pending order which still has to be fulfilled this button will delete that
order. This button is active only when an active order from your MT4 platform is highlighted.
J and N Navigation buttons for left MENU, J is for Scrolling Up in the Menu and N is for Scrolling
Down in the Menu. The active mode or row of the Menu will be highlighted in Yellow by default and
will change from row to row in the same time you will press on J or N.
D Settings button to change the direction of the trade you are thinking to open. As soon as you
press it you should see that the text from bottom right is changing as bellow:
From SELL Order (Mkt) to BUY Order (Mkt) or otherwise when in Open New Market Order mode
From BUY Limit (Pd) to SELL Stop (Pd) or otherwise when in Open New Pending Order mode or
also from BUY Stop (Pd) to SELL Limit (Pd) or otherwise when in Open New Pending Order
mode.
Besides changing the text from right side of the chart you will see that the SL and TP lines are
changing places as well, because the order to be entered now is in the opposite direction.
W Settings button to change the SL and TP levels or the type of the pending order to be entered.
As soon as you will press it the text from bottom right will change as bellow:
From Status:OK to Status:CHANGE or otherwise when in Open New Market Order mode. This is
necessary because the entry line (together with SL and TP) for Market order is moving as the price
change in the Market. In order to stop that we need to press on W, after that you can change your SL
and TP accordingly and then you need to press again on W to let the EA know that it can now follow
the market price again (the status then becomes again OK).
From BUY Limit (Pd) to BUY Stop (Pd) or otherwise when in Open New Pending Order mode or
also from SELL Stop (Pd) to SELL Limit (Pd) or otherwise when in Open New Pending Order
mode. During these changes while in Open New Pending Order mode the entry line will change
from above the current price to below it or otherwise. This is necessary because of the order type you
are going to enter.

F7 Stop button to change the Input settings of the EA. As soon as you press F7 you should see the
following Status: STOP (F7)
After that all you need to do is press again to bring the Inputs settings of the EA.
!!! Important: The EA will start working again only after you click again on the OK button from the
pop up window of Inputs Settings of the EA. If you will click on Cancel it will keep being in the STOP
mode.
!!! Important If you want to change any of the parameters of the EA you must first stop it by
pressing F7 (and then press F7 again to bring the Inputs Settings window) or remove the EA from
your chart and then apply it again. This is necessary because it uses an infinite loop so it can process
faster all of your actions from the keyboard press.
You can remove the EA from your chart by right-click on chart --> Expert Advisors -- > Remove.
A good tip in here for the MT4 platform to remember all of your settings like your email and order id is
saving your settings before clicking on OK button of Expert Properties while applying the EA to chart.
For example while applying the EA to chart, after changing your settings in the Inputs tab, click on the
SAVE button, name the file for example prosltp.set , click on SAVE again. Next time when you apply
the EA just click on LOAD button and select your settings from prosltp.set file. This will save you a lot
of time.
