Move Stop to Breakeven

I don´t fully understand the first answer. So will it go to breakeven once I am 1 point in profit or not? Or is it an either or situation where I either get the breakeven at 1 point in profit or breakeven at a price where commission and spreads are factored it?

Which parameter are you setting to 1? If it's Points of distance from the open price, then upon reaching 1 point of profit, it will see that it cannot set the SL to BE, accounting for spread and commission. Once the level of profit is reached when it can account for them, it will move the SL to BE.
If it's Additional profit in points to add to BE you were talking about, then it will calculate the the SL to cover the spread and commission and to that it will add 1 additional point. It will then follow the same procedure I outlined above.
 
alright so basically it is either I move to breakeven at 1 point in profit or I get moved to breakeven once swap and commission can be accounted for but not both?
eg. Price moves one point in profit and I get put to breakeven and after my position reaches a point where swaps and commissions are covered the sl then moves higher to that price. If that´s not possible with this ea then my next question would be if earnforex has an ea that is capable of this?

Sorry, I am completely lost. Either I don't understand what you are saying or I don't understand how you arrived at such a conclusion.
Let's start from the beginning. What exactly are you trying to achieve?
