.... and hope Steve is in a good mood , as this type of post just clogs up advanced threads.
There are other areas on this forum where you can ask basic questions. Steve has the daunting task of reading EVERY post, so don't be surprised if you get hammered later on - nothing personal but almost all popular topics on other forums very quickly become almost unreadable due to the 'noise' created by the inexperienced, the lazy and/or inept and the protocol here is any post not actually adding anything to a topic is in danger of being shot down in flames.

Actually, Steve is in an exceptionally bad mood tonight but a couple of the dimmer members of this forum are fortunate that he recognises this. They have merely lost the ability to post, not their membership.

I say again guys, read post 1. Some of the apparently gentle statements in it are laws that I am capable of enforcing rigidly.

Those of you with slightly bruised egos this evening look on the bright side. This forum is the force it is because the mods here do not allow idiocy to reign. You will feel the benefit when you have grown up a tad.

have been following this forum for quite some time, decided today to come out of my silent lurkiness first I want to thank Steve and Bob and everybody else for all their hard work here :hi: besides, congrats to the fresh new grandpa ! thought I could contribute with an idea to improve the EA... it actually manages all trades as a basket, but only on the profit side. so you actually are willing to make a gazillion pips, but you don't know at what cost... wouldn't it be better to have also a cashstoploss for the entire basket, so that you knew exactly how much you are willing to risk on the entire basket? that would actually protect some portfolios...

I have not adopted all of your suggestions because some of them come in code snippets provided by programmers who have forgotten more about programming than I shall ever know and whom I hold in awe, but thanks for all the rest.

Hello Steve, Congratulations on the birth of your grandson! I have good results with SBob bascet. I have two Live micro accounts for testing... one is on chart 15m and one on H4. All trades are Trend trades- After I chage to version 1g no more trades. And one think also I have set to SBob on H4 Break event to True and also Partial Closure to 50%. The break event was working fine but the partial closure no.On H4 I will tray to make Millipiede.... Look at the pic...

Hey Steve Seriously, seriously impressive EA. Put it on an Axi demo account this afternoon to play further and at one point miscalculated the lot sizing a tad but thought I would leave it there and explore it's possibilities a bit as more of a scalper with the bigger lot size and quick in/out. Anyway, a few short hours later and quite a few "Can't trade - not enough margin" messages and it was all nicely done at +30% profit for the day up 600-odd pips. Did I say I was impressed? A donation is winging it's way to your PayPal account right now in fact! Thanks once again! Jeff PS Before the roasting starts, there is no way I would suggest putting up a live set like this, but it did highlight for me the possible benefits of exploring this EA as a "fairly high frequency trader".
