Thanks

However, every time I tried to place the trade, MPTM would stop it out instantaneously. I had two buy trades set up with similar stop losses and they were executed without any problems.

If anyone can enlighten me as to what I may be doing wrong, please do not hesitate.

Thank you Steve, christmas came early for me,
Magnificent TradeManager. !

A quick question if you dont mind, going to the old issue of "GOLD" and SILVER" as opposed to "XAU" and "XAG".

Code: Select all

 {
     double Pipfactor=10000;         // correct factor for most pairs
	  if (StringFind(pair,"JPY",0) != -1 || StringFind(pair,"XAG",0) != -1) 
		      Pipfactor = 100;      // if jpy or silver
	  if (StringFind(pair,"XAU",0) != -1) 
            Pipfactor = 10;       // if gold
   return (Pipfactor);
  }

All we have to do is change this bit of code from XAG, XAU to SILVER, GOLD respectively, if our criminal uses SILVER and GOLD, right?

Thank you, and wishing you and wifey a very merry and blessed xmas week.

if (StringFind(pair,"JPY",0) != -1 || StringFind(pair,"XAG",0) != -1 || StringFind(pair,"SILVER",0) != -1)  Pipfactor = 100;      // if jpy or silver

global wrote:Thanks for coding and making MPTM available Steve. I was testing it for managing multiple trades simultaneously in different pairs on different timeframes so I attached the EA to each chart. I set it to ManageAllTrades but should I instead set ManageAllTrades to false and set ManageByMagicNumber to true plus set a different magic number for each new chart I attach it too so that the multiple MPTM instances would not interfere with each other?

If it is necessary to set a different magic number for each new chart/timeframe I attached it to then is there some code I can add to the EA so it creates a new magic number automatically for each new instance of MPTM?

I'm new to EAs so I hope you can forgive my ignorance. Thanks.
