The only problem I am having is multi level trades do not close automatically on the blue line. I have to close them manually

Again I would like to thank Steve for the work he has put into his EA's and now Ribello for tuning the original Beast to the great stage that it is now.

In many ways I'm like a kid let loose in a lolly shop - I want to try everything but where do I start first??? After reading through all the posts in this thread I downloaded the mq4 file to check it out.

Having only just learned that, rather than load an indicator/ea into an Empty4 platform by closing and reopening the platform, I could also do the same by compiling it with the editor... I did just that - to see for myself how that worked.

I have just now downloaded the file - and compiled it into my AXIS Empty4 platform 2x (also did it by closing and opening - same result). What I got (see attached) surprised and scared me because I haven't got the first clue what they mean. All I know is that the icon in the Expert Advisors section of my AXIS Empty4 platform is grey - and the programme will not load.

Sorry to be a bother! Hope you can help!

Thanks now. Cheers.

Scroll down in this report to find the graph. In preparing the report, you can select a specific date range, although sometimes the system plays tricks and gives you slightly different dates - so check what you get as output.

You can then copy the graph out of the browser window and paste/crop into whatever you like. If you are pasting the figures into Excel for analysis, copy the range you want from the report, then in Excel, right click and Paste Special selecting the Unicode Text option.

The Beast in its various incarnations queues up problems for its users unless they are highly self-disciplined and truly understand Recovery. Understanding Recovery also requires you to understand when it is necessary to pull the plug on the position and start again.

If you cannot forsee the possible scenarios that will lead to huge drawdown and how you will deal with it, then I suggest you stop trading the EA immediately and sit on your profits with a self-satisfied sigh. Ribelo has met the difficulties this style of trading presents - reread post 1 for details - so I suggest you take note of what he has to say.

I am the original coder of many incarnations of The Beast. I have failed to make them profitable in the longer term. You might care to consider that only an idiot would ignore my warning. Equally, you might care to read Sam's thread at http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... p=800#p800 for encouragement. Just don't automatically assume you can emulate his success.
