Really like this system as the longer time frames work well for me, thanks for sharing it with us.

Are you using MPTM to manage your open orders? If so could you post a set file that you are using as I am struggling to set it up correctly. The jumping stop seems to be moving the SL to early and I am not sure what I am doing wrong!

Thanks in advance and keep up the good work.
Yes, I am using mptm but only for the move to Break even and the global closure. MPTM as it is will not manage the jumping stop how I do, so I do that part manually.

Cheers
Shelley

I had the first closure on my new demo closing all trades at 10% today...obviously left a lot of pips on the table so will be interesting to compare the 2 closing strategies over time. Demo started 21/9.

I'll add an extra myfxbook link for this demo soon.

:clap: I only wish the EA had done the same thing but for some reason it didn't :arrrg: more bugs to hunt down, it closed OK but then didn't open a new trade with all the rules met, I can only think that when it checked for a new trade the old one was still open so did nothing and I was just thinking of using it live as well :lol:
Bad luck with that zader, I hope the EA took the other NZD trades?

Hi indy360, if this is demo could you try dropping the EA on a already open manual trade with TradeLong & TradeShort both set to false and see if it manages your stops for you.

Not reviewed all the others yet but a quick look shows only NZDJPY & EURNZD were opened last night, EURNZD has already hit stoploss at +205pips, not bad for 7hrs :lol:

Thanks for the suggestion Shelley, I will do that.

Can someone please tell me with the Quick Trailing John posted, I've opened and it has the .ex4 file which I already have. Then it has a .set file (quick set for day chart.set) Is that a file we use in Empty4? I've not come across that type before. :?
It sounds like John has already set the quick trailing up for this method but I'm not sure how to apply in Empty4.

John.. or someone please help! :oops:
Thanks heaps.

Cherry the set files goes in MQL4\Presets folder, add the EA to a chart, on the imputs tab click "Load" and your set file should be there to load the settings.
