Complex trading logic

Hello,
I have a system prototype which uses break even and the trailing exit - which is activated on the future value of an indicator - can this be done? I mean - activate trailing stop-loss when indicator1 gives signal1? otherwise the trade should reach reach the dynamic stop-loss set at trade entry (multiple of Average True range) or exit with the breakeven after the price closes above entry (break-even activator signal - also activated after trade is placed - not at trade placement)?
Can this be done? -

I don't understand this question. how can one predict the future value of a indicator ( if you mean Ichimoku otherwise )

Yes its possible. I normally keep my stop loss in my code and send order when its triggered.

I trail my stop loss based on price movement , and I also have a threshold for activating it. but I keep my SL at system and not with broker.
Essentially BT can fit your requirements.

thank you for your reply,,,

I mean for example start trailing the position ONLY AFTER certain indicator gives the signal (for example when rsi goes above 60,,,,can it also be a custom indicator?) - otherwise keep the stop-loss and break-evens active - breakevenm is also activated ONLY after the price has closed above entry - this is possible also?

I need to add that the trailing stop-loss is activated after a certain signal is given but the exit is sent to the broker AFTER the trailing stop-loss is triggered itself...can this be done? I was able to simulate this outside of python- not sure if backtrader can handle this?

please advice if this can be done or a zipline cane achieve this?
