Is it the planned behavior when using "AutomatechartOpeningAndClosing" set to true that the dashboard (using thomas) opening again and again a new chart from that (same) symbol(s) which have valid signal(s)?

I have had the same problem with both dashboards. Not often, but still...

This behaviour is neither planned nor can I observe it here (with OOTB settings). But I will have a look at the code.

Hi.

I have rewritten some code that may cause a problem when you have nearly as many charts open as you have trading pairs. Please test it. If the problem is gone, it will replace the version in post 1 and I will explain the changes.

G'day all,

Just a quick question, and do hope my head won't be lopped, but I do like to use the Risk% function that uses the equity in the account...

The function doesn't seem to be working, or is it just my incompetence?

As you can see by the chart below the arrows indicate what is written on the chart differs from what the actual lot size should be??

Get the guillotine ready if I have obviously missed something... :lol:

Cheers
Tony

You've set LotsPerDollopOfCash to 0.01 (with SizeOfDollop 1000) and you have 3051 Equity so lot size will be 0.03 :hi:

G'day heart1010

Yes I do understand how it works, but if you look closely at the chart I posted you will see Lot Size 0.03 which is correct, but it places the trades & pending orders at 0.01, not 0.03...

That is why I mentioned it, but thanks anyway. :D

Oh sorry... I see!
Try to set RiskPercent to 0 (and Lot also)

Today i noticed that D1 SS on GBPUSD is white. So no trades should be. But i have two sells.YESTERDAY it was red. On the EA panel SS is also white. I'am using Peaky also - is short. Anyways it shouldn't have opened any trades.

Thought to let everyone know maybe this is not just on my side...
