Closing at breakeven after certain number orders

By having an option to close the positions at breakeven after certain number of orders(let us say 3 orders), we can reduce the drawdown as it clearly indicates that we are trading against the trend. This makes the trading much safer. However this may at times reduce the overall profit. 

Please implement. All the best and thanks for your efforts.

PS: Iam posting this as new idea as earlier ideas were talking about shifting the positions to breakeven but not about closing of the trades.

    Not sure it has sense, but can be implemented, of course.

    The variant is to close at breakeven the series, when the max trades of martingale is reached.

    You can use Reduce TakeProfit option for such strategy.

    Do you mean - change this setting manually, when the last martingale deal is opened?

    Of course, no.

    But I was wrong, we must improve this option with "Start reduce after order #" to allow this strategy.

    Of course, it is the same idea as https://communitypowerea.userecho.com/communities/1/topics/45-add-the-ability-to-transfer-positions-to-breakeven

    If TakeProfit moved to BreakEven, the series will be closed on that level.

    I'm merging these topics...

    Let's say it will be the option "Move TP to the BE after martingale order #X is opened"
