Thanks for clarifying. Are you sure you have usePeakHiLo = true and set to 730 D1 because those trades should not be possible if you do. Only buys would be allowed on these pairs all this year and this is the direction Awesome has been trading on our test account. I just dbl checked the set file posted and it is correct.

It looks like on reload/restart or change of settings AO is no longer willing to manage existing trades that are on the chart. I'm not sure why however.

I have a couple NJ short trades from a couple days ago that are now in profit and it's completely ignoring them.

Can anyone confirm that trades are being ignored?

Maybe obvious but did you check you kept the same trade comments and magic numbers than used prior to your changes

When I look in the code comments and I see a "You must be a @#$@ moron for changing trade comments and magic" I leave that stuff alone.

So the answer is no I've not messed with either of those.

I find that clearing "Global Variables" before re-loading the EA tends to fix that type of issue.

@Steve, based on the previous comments a call to GlobalVariablesDeleteAll() in DeInit() would make this happen automagically. I don't see it. I don't like making stuff like this automatic. I would much rather delete specific GVs than nuke the terminal's GV contents on reload.

What are your thoughts on it?

The only GlobalVariable references are to do with the average spread. Deleting them on exit from the program would not be helpful.

Again is probably obvious but is NJ still in your list of PairsToTrade?

Yes it is. I know this because every time I look at the FXChoice crim I cringe with disgust on their "ECN spread" of > 3-4 pips. And when I see Traders Way crim I think who in the hell charges -14.04 swaps?!

You guys are lucky to be able to use GP.
