values in the data window would be helpful as cant see alot due to background chart and stuff.
also my just be random but inserting the EA instantly gave me 6 trades. canceled them because i wanted to change lot size, fired it up again and then nothing for an hour.
But big up on the work lets hope for some pips.

On a 5 digit crm (3 on JPY pairs) the jumping stop is working, but it's off by an order of magnitude. I have an USDJPY buy order and it should modify the SL by 0.01 but the EA modifies it by 0.001.

Hi Alex - is your jumping stop working? Mine doesn't seem to be... :cry:
Can't say for the moment, will keep you updated.

Don't think so - I think the pip factor is out by an order or two :?:
You are right ! Had a look too quickly, sorry.

Thanks

changing from 0.25 lot size to 0.10 instantly put in trades. 0.10 is my minimum.

Nice one Zool. This highlighted a logic bloop that I (think) I have fixed in V 1b in post 1.

Hello,

Can somebody explain what the input 'shiftDayChange' does for this EA. It was mentioned in Steve's exemplary initial documentation, but it's purpose was never explained. Baluda didn't cover it in his post about GMT Offset that Steve had linked to.

Thanks,
-Frank

You will get murdered on default settings. Using BBBE requires you to use your brains. If you cannot be arsed to do so, then go and play somewhere else. I am reasonably sure I made this point in post one, albeit a tad more politely.

In case I did not make myself clear in post 1: if you are a bone-idle dimwit, find something else to do; BBBE will not make up for your lack of intelligence.

You could always try reading post 1 properly. There is quite a lot of useful info there. Only an idiot fails to read the OP's post one.

Especially when the OP is me.
