Thank you so much for your work on this! :clap:
Hi rosst,

Here's the set file for the latest version. I am trading 3 TFs with 5 trades per and varied lots. With SS and FB at D1 I have trade long and short both set to true. Have not had a fifo error in two weeks. I believe with the D1 setting the lower TFs all trade in the same direction for that symbol. Time will tell on this one.

Cheers,

Gary

Thanks for the .set ! :) wonderful

The question is that by default the initial lot is 0.18 .
What to change in parameters if i want to begin at 0.01 lot ?

cheers

Hi manuoz,

The varied lot function can start at the 'lower lot' amount by setting UseHighestLot to false. The lot range is determined by StartingLot and 'MaxTrades * NoOfTF'.

Gary

Code: Select all

//For victims of the US mis-government.
extern bool    UseFIFO=false;        //UseFIFO: FIFO only works with hidden s/l & t/p
extern bool    UseVariedLots=true;   //UseVariedLots: vary lot size per trade
                                     //US traders, Oanda offers this feature, not available at Forex.com
                                     //MaxTrades * NoOfTF = MaxLot
                                     //3 TFs + 5 trades max = 0.01 to 0.15, 4 TFs + 5 trades max = 0.01 to 0.20, etc
                                     //each TF has a range, H1=0.01,0.02,0.03,0.04,0.05, M15=0.06,0.07,0.08,0.09,0.10, etc
                                     //when opening trade, loop through the 'TF Lot array' and choose the highest (or lowest) lot available
extern bool    UseHTFtoLTFLots=true; //UseHTFtoLTFLots: highest TF starts at 0.01, otherwise lowest TF starts at 0.01 
extern bool    UseHighestLot=true;   //UseHighestLot: use highest lot available for that TF, otherwise always choose lowest available lot
extern double  StartingLot=0.04;     //StartingLot: 0.01 to 0.10, 0.05 to 0.14, etc
