V 1l is in post 1. This fixes the lots per dollop of cash calculation that always increased the lot size prematurely. I have been meaning to do this for years, so this fix can be applied to any of the EA's coded using my shells.
It is a simple DIY:
Go to the top of the file and do a search for "SizeOfDollop". I declared this originally as a double and it needs changing to an int i.e.
extern int SizeOfDollop=1000;
Repeating the search will take you to the "void CalculateLotAsAmountPerCashDollops()" function. Replace it with this:
Code: Select all void CalculateLotAsAmountPerCashDollops()
{
double lotstep = MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_LOTSTEP);
int decimal = 0;
if (CloseEnough(lotstep, 0.1) )
decimal = 1;
if (CloseEnough(lotstep, 0.01) )
decimal = 2;
double maxlot = MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_MAXLOT);
double minlot = MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_MINLOT);
double DoshDollop = AccountInfoDouble(ACCOUNT_BALANCE);
if (UseEquity)
DoshDollop = AccountInfoDouble(ACCOUNT_EQUITY);
//For testing:
//DoshDollop = 2796;
//Calculate the no of dollops in DoshDollop
int NoOfDollops = (int) DoshDollop / SizeOfDollop;
//Initial lot size
Lot = NormalizeDouble(NoOfDollops * LotsPerDollopOfCash, decimal);
//Min/max size check
if (Lot > maxlot)
Lot = maxlot;
if (Lot < minlot)
Lot = minlot;
//For testing
//Alert(DoubleToStr(Lot, decimal));
}//void CalculateLotAsAmountPerCashDollops()
