I don't know if this is a known issue, which I noticed today with the jumping stoploss.
I am using the following settings:

BreakEven=true
BreakEvenTargetPips=100
BreakEvenTargetProfit=50
PartCloseEnabled=false

JumpingStop=true
JumpingStopTargetPips=50
AddBEP=true

Now when trades go to +100pips, their SL move to +50, which is fine. After that when they reach +150, the SL also try to go to +150 (instead of +100). The SL modification fail with the following error several times, but when the price moves a bit more positive, the SL modification (at +150) succeeds. But as it is very close to the current price, it is hit in few seconds.
Pipcruiser's Pipmasher 10280303 JumpingStopLoss() stop loss modification failed with error 130: invalid stops
Today three of my trades (GBPNZD, GBPCAD, and EURUSD) went through this cycle generating a total of 450 pips on my live account. :yahoo:

If the JS was working as intended, the pips might be even more.

Thanks Pipcruiser and Steve for this simple yet powerful trading tool.

Hi there, Im glad you are making pips :)

I have noticed the excact same issue...

So if a skilled coder can fix this, maybe Pipmasher will get better!

Thx

I might be being thick and please ignore if so, but if AddBEP = true then isn't trying to do what you're asking it to do and add on an extra 50 pips?

Be very sure of your ground guys, when suggesting that code that has worked flawlessly and seamlessly for years has bugs in it, and that it is not instead your stupidity that has caused the problem.

The last guy idiotic enough to do this hit me when I was in a bad mood, so I banned him. Tonight, you have been lucky. Do not assume this luck will last.

In future, assume the code is perfect and that you are an idiot; your registration might survive here if you do.

Note the lack of my usual post-ending smilie.

Read the effing manual, ok?

Afterprime is the official SHF broker. Read about them at https://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=175790#p175790.

I still suffer from OCCD. Good thing, really.

Anyone here feeling generous? My paypal account is always in the market for a tiny donation. pianodoodler@hotmail.com is the account.

Think so as well, had a GBPCAD buy that went over 200 pips and closed at 150.

If you enable addBEP in your jump stops it will add those 5 or 10 protection pips that you have set in your 'BreakEven' setting EVERY time it jumps so if you are using break even as well as jump stops then do not enable the 'addBEP' in your jump stop settings.

Hope that makes sense - only just got out of bed (0600 my time) and yes Gertje - that was a very nice chart to wake up to this morning.

I have had PM on a live account since the beginning of the year and using only 0.05 lot size on 28 pairs I am up 8% closed and 3.5% floating.

Steve may think it is boring but it sure does bring home the bacon - thank you so much for sharing this with the community Pipcruiser :good: :good:

What is that info on the top left of your chart. My MBTM doesn't have that info.
