I am using InterbankFx and Criminals "false" but when i put the EA in the chart it shows "true".

And i was testing today with 15 min and it did not open a trade at 9:45 GMT (signal at 9:30 bar) :(

The ECN designation simply means the broker won't accept the Stop Loss and Take Profit at the same time as the initial order. The code has to place orders in two steps. Cowboy IBFX is one of the brokers that requires the two steps and Steve's code checks for this particular company.

Okay guys,
i noticed something nice. Dont bother with the balls demo's for now until i 'reset' with new strategy as mentioned before. Was doing this and i noticed the first attached pic.
I'm icluding the set file, just pay attention to the times and you'll see this one has'nt lost since i put it on the chart.
set file included and confirm with the second pic. Its has won every day since the 4th of this month on eurusd only, that it has been trading. There's light at the end of the tunnel. All Sl'ed out due to my BE or JS.
reagrds and hope this helps.

NICE!,
;)
Still in profit with some of mine. But account losses are spectacular.
will be re-organising over week-end, just re-shuffling accounts and demos with new and old tests.

well done Glenn, good to see we getting progress.

Wolfie looks like we might be getting a better shot with both angle and slope. i cant find the damn demo and set file to post right now, scouring the PC's but i remember seeing it and wondering to myself that it was doing okay.
will let you know.
regards

Okay,
heres the pic and the set file.

I think this is its first position taken, you cant see it on the pic, but wins are 0 and losses are 0. I prefer that Wolfie takes its time to get into a position. Too many positions here is deadly.

I'm starting to see we getting into a trending market like when we first started this EA up. All the 10.2 and a's and multi should be coming right now.

The trick i suppose, (think load), is to either identify a trending market before we go balls to the wall or, keep the ea off the charts and attach when need to.

the first option would be better cos i'm a lazy arse. Thanks Steve and all for your contributions. Its great when we learn from experience and each other.
