Something strange is happening in my platforms:

I'm trying a "default" setup which is running nicely and profitably
(Check SET 1, SCSHOT 1)

http://www.myfxbook.com/members/acostaf ... ult/400603


This has some buys and sells (trades and pending trades) open, looks pretty normal.

On the other hand, I have another platfrom running as per linuspoon's suggestion (using MPTM abd MPBM). So I've only changed TP/SL parameters, everything else I left untouched as you could see from the setfiles attached. (Set 2, SCSHOT 2)

http://www.myfxbook.com/members/acostaf ... oon/417242

The values on the dashboard are also pretty similar, only NO SHORT TRADES WHATSOEVER ON THE SECOND PLATFORM

I can't find any reasonable explanation, but I'm missing some good shorts here.

HElp!

In Steves MPTM, check these settings.

extern string gen="----General inputs----";
double Lot=0.01;
bool TradeLong=true;
bool TradeShort=true; <===
extern int MagicNumber=0;

Just a thought.

The EA has been doing great on my live microlots account, and has increased equity by 10% from London open till 11 am London time when I closed all the trades manually.

Restart again at 12 midday. Will be interesting to see the result at London close.

Everything OOTB. No issues with CPU overload. No bugs to report.

I would expect a great deal more interest in this thread in no time.

Many congratulations again on your great effort and generosity.

peter.

I don't want to reduce the amount of demos as I think that the entries this EA has are so good that they deserve to be played around with a wide arrange of exit strategies.

Perhaps checking the readings not every tick but every minute?, cleaning up code? Don't know, as Im no coder but if there's a way to do that, please give it some thought!

I hope my demos help other people. And I encourage everyone to try out different exit settings! We'll nail this.

Thanks to everyone

Did you try the change I suggested on the previous page (about halfway down)? I'd be interested to know if it helps.
