AUDNZD included. It would be beneficial to check which pairs are involved actually.
But as I mentioned It happened on the single SB EA for me many times.
Randomly, not at a set time or at a turn of a candle.
I also used to get a message the EA disabled on a particular pair due to a rogue trade.
Mostly happened to me on the AUS pairs.

Do you use a set Stop loss?
Also do you have it set to Every tick mode = true ?

Still I do not have it on my setup on version 1h.

Otherwise I am running The basket version on my LIVE account for 3 weeks now and it is chugging along nicely and making pips every day. Only use it on 1H and 4H TF's on the same account but from 2 different Empty4 installation. I log into the same LIVE account from both.
Taking trend and Ct trades but no closures on reverse. BE at 30 pips and locking 20 pips profit.
TP 40 pips and SL 500. No issues what so ever with this one. DD is very manageable on the higher TF's. I use 0.01 lots per each 2K capital to be safe. GEC at every $20 profit.

So you're using two separate entry timeframes, but using the same management parameters for both?

I ask because SBB uses both OrdersTotal() and AccountProfit(), so each instance will be counting both its own trades, and the other instances' trades in their calculations.

Have fun!

Steve last two days been testing Stochy Bob and like SSB when its rolling its brilliant but when it gets out of sync with PA its not so glamorous.

An idea.....................If we combined the two SSB and Stochy Bob we could select the best times to trade the secret bob signals, would be much more effectively imo. Others here and yourself may have better ideas how than I, but based on my studies of these two EA's and Bob original work here's an idea to look at. It is just one approach of many but gets the point across of these two good EAs coming together to form something really special.

Normal SSB set-up Trend Trade only w/ or w/out 240MA filter
Enter with: secret bob signal
and
Stochy entry entry level hit within (X) candles of secret bob signal or at arbitrary level sloped towards trade, Stoch TF is next TF up or higher from trading TF, stoch setting 2-1-1. (Probably a programing preference)

Exit normal SSB approaches or a stoch level or cross

There is potential to better nail the CT trades too with the stoch filter but I'd rather leave that for testing rather than speculate.

Even more exciting is to be able to have two fast Stoch upper TF filters, this is really closely mirroring what Bob is actually doing in his trading, and if you put this on a chart and visual backtest you see that a lot of trading would cease in the retraces or ranging PA that is causing current DD burden. Imagine SSB rumbling along with small DD!

I can imagine how busy you are Steve so this is an offer of an idea nothing more. This family of EA's is worth the effort, and well done on this so far.

Here's an example chart of above
