Hi There

I tried to set lot to 0 and Risk Percent to 0.5 and SL to 100. Seems like there is a little problem, the EA did not calculate based on Risk Percent and automatically inserted 0.001 as lot and gave me an error alert...

Me or the EA needs a little tweaking :) ?

It is the ea, but frankly I do not care. Just assume that Percent doesn't work, that Steve couldn't care less and take it out of your equation. It will be removed at the next update.

I'm allowed the odd frivolous post now and then. :-)

Hmmm my FB V1 (the first version here posted) is doing quite well - atm. :smile: The v1a using the "min+max distancy" thingies had a serious loss today. The only difference between them: v1 use BE 50/10, the v1a not. MPTM is set to 1% instead of the OOTB 2% for both.

Looked at AGTs group of losing trades. CSS looks to be a possible way to close good or bad trades. Too tired to write or think anymore now. Will comment on the weekend.

Meanwhile, another basket trailing stop in action.
