I am doing that manually myself, waiting for 10% gain then closing it all down. Yeah, it would be nice to have that in the ea, but I've been using mptm or similar to do it as of now. |

Much better that way. Having platform-wide closure capability built into a single pair trader is a recipe for total chaos. Imagine what happens when 10 instances of the bot all spot the closure conditions all at the same time. ------------------------------------------ DC and I are honing in on the invalid stop errors being generated by the break even and jumping stop functions, but more about that tomorrow. For now, it has highlighted a bloop. Jump to the end of the code and do an upwards search for this: NewStop = NormalizeDouble(OrderOpenPrice()+(BreakEvenProfit / factor) + spread, Digits); Notice the bit I highlight here: NewStop = NormalizeDouble(OrderOpenPrice()+(BreakEvenProfit / factor) + spread, Digits); The "+" should be a "-" as in: NewStop = NormalizeDouble(OrderOpenPrice()+(BreakEvenProfit / factor) - spread, Digits); That bloop guarantees invalid stop errors in the Break Even function when applied to a sell trade.  |

Hi pipcruiser, Hoping that later you will give us some details on how you use this EA, and which version... I tried TJF set file but couldn't reproduce those results. Best wishes, Weyk |

[quote="pipcruiser » Thu Sep 28, 2017 9:56 pm" I use the latest always and once in a while I close out manually all trades and start again. [/quote] Sing out if I can add anything helpful. It can always be subject to a true/false input and so cannot do any harm if the default is 'false'. Send me a pm if you do not want to experiment in public. |

H1 Still marching along.....this is past 49 hours starting market open 9-27. Been running these pairs and Gold since Monday....EC running Simple Offset only....Gold and EJ running both Simple and Complex....have not yet seen go over -$100 DD usually stays around -$65.....EC took a pretty good dive still did well. Have all 3 CP eas set to stop trading and trying to close 4 hours after London open Friday in an attempt to see how many positions can close so less to leave open over weekend or have to close manually....hopefully enough movement in NY session or 11:00 pullback to close most. If anyone interested: Started with TJF set file from first post. Min Distance.....2 JS...5 Hedge take profit... 30 Not a bad return %....will run same setup next week. |
