Problem trade remedy

Problem trade mode to missed entry contains 3 options. The first is to hold the trade to target, exit, and profit. The 2nd option is to add 1 lot and trade to entry for breakeven on the first lot. Add 1 lot means to hold to 1.8754, breakeven, and no losses. The 3rd option is hold 2 lots to target and double profits.

Never a loss in currency trading as a missed entry represents enormous opportunity especially when our weekly trades are 150 and 200 pips.
