Please see the attached code. I haven't had time to test it, so be sure to look at it prior to use.

Settings:
equity_lock How much you want to ensure you keep, once lock_start has been hit.
equity_lock_start At what profit do we start locking in equity?
equity_target At this amount of profit we close all orders

Example:
100,130,500 - If we get to $130 profit, then we'll lock in $100. If we get to $500 profit, we close all orders.

Realize that because this is a stand-alone EA, it's not very friendly. It ignores magic numbers and manual orders and will take everything into account.
Very nice idea.. I'll try it..

Thank you
