Got it, I think. Fix in post 1 - at least I think it is a fix. Coders, given that the lot size is now a changeable thingy, then Lot needs te remain permanent. I declared SendLot as a program-wide variable to hold the value of the adapted lot size. This snippet holds the key: Code: Select all Code: Select all Code: Select all |

Coders, in that code snippet I posted, there are a few more changes to make that I forgot to mention - look at: Code: Select all Also, the max pairs trading thingy appears not to work. I will sort that one out tomorrow. |

Oh, Strain a Bicep Playing Chess. I found the reason for the max pairs thingy not working the instant I went looking for it. Usual thingy. Carefully coded al the prelim stuff - declared the variables, added the chart feed back etc. This can take ages. Then forgot to add the actual filter to the trade decision code. Can't you guys find a forum to go to where the PCA has a firing brain cell? Fix in post 1. If it actually fixes anything. Given my record today, I doubt it. |

I do not understand how did you manage to get the accounts killed. I need to look at your set files. Both of my accounts and the LIVE account as well, made huge gains this morning because of the weekend gap. The EA performed absolutely perfectly. Took all the profits and reopened the grid instantly. My AUDUSD account now up by 24% and the GBPJPY account is up by 26% I am also using the original EA and performs like a miracle up until now. I started a new setup with the latest version, but only looking for the feature which protects the account in ranging conditions and looks for a breakeven amount. Maybe this will never happen, so I might not be able to see if it actually works as well as it is intended. Frank |

Blazej, This is what I am using. TF is irrelevant, but I use TF 30 min for better visual tracking. These are still on the first original Gartje EA. AUDUSD: Account size: $2000 Current balance as I write this $2504 started on the 19th of March Lot size: 0.2 Cash profit target: $19 Pips between trades: 25 No of trades : 30 RsiTdApplied Price: 0 The rest is default Only one pair per account. GBPJPY: Account size: $2000 Current balance $2666.20 Started on the 28th of March Lot size: 0.3 Cash profit target : $43 Pips between trades : 27 No of trades: 30 RsiTdApplied Price: 0 The rest is default I am also running from today additional accounts with different settings using the latest version of the EA. EURAUD, EURJPY and AUDJPY Will report on those later. Frank |
