Happened to me few times as well kwchau...in expert tab I could see the EA was sending modified sl order every second...what I did to stop it, turned the expert advisor off and on by clicking on the AutoTrading button...then those modified orders were mysteriously stopped!!!

By the way Frank, thanks for your suggestion to set close on opposite arrow = false.

Do you do that on all strategies, or only trendwave trades?

On all the wave trades.
I found them to be the best so far.

If you enable both trend and wave, you're already betting double.

Yes Gertje...would be a double, but I am only interested when the big arrow and waves are side-by-side each other for entry.

Then after I have the entry, I will enable the wave, rad, trend and range on that pair.

Will give it a try to see the outcome!

Following last week's Swissy meltdown, I've just received this from IC Markets:-

Dear Trader,

This is to inform you about the key ECB announcements expected tomorrow(Thursday, 22nd January, 2015)

All eyes will be on the ECB and Draghi for tomorrow’s press conference( 1:30 PM GMT) With the ECB's interest rate decision also being held tomorrow (12:45 PM GMT) and a strong belief held that the ECB will use this meeting to announce details regarding their quantitative easing program. Markets and spreads are likely to be extremely volatile and will widen during this period.

In preparation for ECB's QE/Rate announcement please ensure your account’s exposure is kept to a minimum & is well capitalized to avoid liquidation. IC Markets will be changing the leverage across all pairs to 100:1 during the Asian session tomorrow. Any account with an exposure of greater than 50 times its value will be assessed for liquidation/position reduction prior to the announcement.

The reduced leverage will be effective until 26th of January 2015, post which normal leverage will be assessed on pairs.

V 2r is in post 1. I have added a flag that should stop those runs of thousands of rapid sltp mods.

The function now runs once at startup and then again when a new trade is sent.

Thank you for your update :hi:

Today it was facinating to see HGB pulling itself out of a DD (including floating) ~-15% to +3,5% and than saying goodnight after this exhausting start into the week

Let's see how it deals with the ECB Press Conference tomorrow.

G'day Steve, once again you have excelled at this wonderful opportunity that you have given us, HGB...

Since applying HGB version 2q, on my three broker accounts I have gained +16.9%, +16.2% and +11% respectively in the past 24 hour or so. Granted they are all demo accounts, opened with just $1000 each, but it really shows the potential for the HGB to work successfully on a live account.

I have just loaded v2r and looking forward to seeing its response to the ECB Press Conference later today..

I won't trading live until mid Feb, just to let the market settle after our recent Black Swan Event.
I just wanted to say thanks for all your frustration and sleepless nights (or days for that matter) that you've suffered for all of us, who are so fortunate to have found you, and your fantastic team here...

Thanks again mate
Kind regards
Tony
