First day 300 pips banked and another 200+ Floating.
Nice one, Andy.
Nice work Stevie :hi:
Ta. Yep, I banked 213 today, although the EGbp has been floating around all day going nowhere and is currently c. -40.

Just as I suspected though, that when a market really takes off in PPoS' favour, those multi-level trades crack in some lurvely pips.

uh oh. It seems my results have been skewed by double trades.

But Steve, before you go popping the hood on this baby...I will note that I thought I had opened this account as a micro and set my multi trade lot size to .05,
That's below the minimum for this account. So piproid opened trades at the correct minimum of .10

Is it possible that because the EA needed to double my lotsize, that somehow made it take double trades?

I will correct this and we will see. Anybody else get doubles?

Any specific settings that might work better than default to share guys ? or default are good for now on demo?
I am still at read & learn about this EA.
Cheers!

Don't know Andy. Given the unparalleled ability of guys here to break something simple I have adopted this simple mantra: if it works on my account it is working just fine.

If anything appears to be bust, I will assume the user is an idiot until the problem occurs on my platform.

Saves me a shed load of pointless angst and the causers of said shed load of pointless angst their accounts when I discover that the last 15 hours of so-called 'bug hunting' was actually down to the stupidity of the user.

Doesn't mean there aren't any bugs of course, but genuine ones will eventually appear on my platform.

HGB is different - it is a mightily complex beast who could still be giving birth to bugs in 5 years time. PP aint.

Incidentally Andy, I love your 'piproid' and much prefer it to the original. Look forward to a renaming any time soon.

Beats 'Hoppy'. I didn't understand nicknames as a child and always hated that. Use it at the peril of a visit from my private spetznatz.

Actually, either of those must be better than what a fair few members are thinking right now - "GrumpyOldBastard" would be affectionate by comparison. :lol:

Discussion in the original PP thread about more adaptive sl/tp using ATR convinced me to add the feature - V 1b in post 1.

AtrPeriod = 0 turns off the use of atr altogether. Setting AtrTpMultiplier to 0 turns off use of atr for the take profit. Setting AtrSlMultiplier to 0 turns off use of atr for the stop loss.
