Thanks Nev. I was going to take a look later but this saves me the bother of thinking about it. :lol:

I will upload a corrected version later, for those of you reluctant to DIY.

Version 1s is in post 1.

Desky and Sharkey are the same bot but I retain Sharkey as a separate EA in case Richard asks for something not relevant here. Read the explanation for the update and how to DIY at viewtopic.php?p=173688#p173688

Hi Steve.

I have been playing around with the setting for TDesky Trading Partner.. and i just cant figure out how to implement a small setting. Let me explain..

let's say that I have 3 individual trades open on the same pair.. 10 pips apart..

ok now let's say that I have my breakeven set at 50 pips and lock in 45pips
and I have Equalizestoploss turn on with missingstoploss too..

now remember the 3 open trade

the first open trade reach 50pips and send a stop loss at 45pips

what I want to happen to the 2nd and 3rd open trade to have the same stop loss as the first trade and when the 2nd trade reaches 50 pips it locks in the 45pips and I want it to move the 1st and 3rd stoploss to the same stop loss as 2nd stop loss and when the 3rd open trade reaches 50 pips and lock in the 45pips I want it to move the 1st and 2nd stoploss to the same stop loss as 3rd stop loss. this way if the market makes a reversal all 3 trades exit the market

Hello,
Just a newbie question. Maybe I found a bug, if not please excuse me and clarify this: Why Desky opened a buy stop order even if the ForexKiwi was set to true and FkMinimumMarginPercent was set to 500 and at the moment of opening it was 300 ?. Just a guess..could it be that only market orders will not be opened? If you need more data regarding this problem please ask.
Thanks in advance for cooperation!

I confirm that, a few minutes ago, also a sell stop was opened....To be clear: a previous placed stop order became market order.

Good morning Steve,

what do you think about implementing the order management functionality of Scalpy (i.e. profit target, break even after 2 hours and close everything after 4 hours) into Desky?

This way we would be able to reproduce the strategy behind Scalpy with TDesk and Desky. Furthermore, anybody would be able to implement special requests for filters (i.e. indicators like super slope, peaky, whatsoever) by themselves without asking you for every personal request.

Your opinion?

Best regards

Sebastian

Hi Steve, are there any news on this subject? Or is that going to be too complicated or even impossible? I guess copy and paste won‘t work, right? :|

I had forgotten, so this was a well-timed nudge. I will start thinking about it.

Sebastian, see my latest post at https://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB ... 33#p175033

What you can do is load Scaly onto a separate chart and enable UseScalpyOnlyForManagement.
