Hi Guys, sorry if this has been asked before but is there currently an EA issue with the amount of trades being open exceeding your MaxTrade limit setting??

What I mean is, I have my RAD trade EA setting for MaxRadTrades set to 2 but the EA opened 4 at the same time, same pair.

Am I missing something?

I've just updated from v2h to v2i and now all my charts are showing "Global Profit Target Reached". The rest of the HUD has gone. See attached screenshot.
Is this a bug in the update or user error?

Not re 2i but if I reload 2h on a chart I get the same thing- change TF and go back and it's gone.

Nope, changing TF and going back is not resolving it for me.

Hey guys,

today -400 pips so far, yesterday wasn't any better. Has anyone got an idea what's wrong?

My settings are: OOTB with wave trades disabled, range trading allowed, trading hours 09:00-20:00 GMT

I also recognized that some orders are opened and immediately closed.

Thanks in advance!

When I follow the recommendation to take made pips off the table when they've accumulated so the market doesn't take them back, which is the recommended course of action- 1) close all open and pending trades and let HGB start over, 2) close all open trades and leave HGB's pending trades to play out, or 3) close only those open trades with x amount of profit, leaving all other open and pending trades to play out??

Thanks,

Leslie

Leslie:
This is precisely the kind of question you have to ask YOURSELF when trading. YOU have to make those decisions. Nobody can tell you what to do. I doubt if there is anyone on this forum who has been trading HGB or any form of the HGI or for that matter any other indicator who has not asked HIM/HERSELF your questions and at one time or another and selected each of the potential answers depending on THEIR view of THEIR current situation. I will go further to state that all three choices have been right based on the underlying deductions of the TRADER and all three have been wrong also for the same reason.

The great appeal of this business, at least to me, is that you are in total control You can seek advice but the decisions YOU make are the deciding factor. Like any other part of life YOU live with YOUR decisions and their consequences. There is nobody to blame but YOURSELF and nobody to take credit but YOURSELF. I have also found that MOST PEOPLE are very reluctant to make a decision about anything. They would much prefer someone else do it and take the responsibility.

I read about, but i dont know where.

To install new HGB, i need put the EA each pairs manual. I think there are a script to put automatic. :hi:

Hi ariel,

You can download the "Charts into alphabetical order" indicator and script from here: http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... =48&t=3860
If you are using version 765 of Empty4, the indicator won't work, but you still can use the script (or downgrade to version 600+)

Hi, I removed the Daily cashprofittarget from the default 30 to 0(disabled) the 14th January (on the afternoon).
Since then I cant recognize the behaviour of the EA. Most trades is closing around break even in 1 or 2 pips loss after only a few seconds.

Here is my myfxbook: http://www.myfxbook.com/members/swefx/g ... ldLcyNZZmb

The forward test has been good but since this little adjustment something has happened. I am not blaming any coder for this. I only adjusted daily cashprofittarget. Anyone have any ideas?

Attaching my setfile.
(sorry for my bad english)
