Exellent work,thanks a lot.Can you send us a set file.(Can not find -EarlySLAjust and EarlySLValue)

Ea checks this every time SL< Opening price AND Bid = Opening price + 10 (for a BUY). So, if stop was already moved, but conditions met again, then comes the error.
Also, I've noticed that if you set TS at the same value as BE (15 pips), the routine of SL adjusting is aborted, can't understand why, maybe Mike can see the bloop... :)
Any greater value than 15 works fine.

Thanks, Mike.
Ive fixed the first error and i'm looking for the TS error now. I'll open a new thread for this great piece of work in a bit. I'll rename to version 2 and i'll make sure the defaults are correct that way it can be tested ootb.

Great, thank you, Mike! Have fixed errors here too, now I'm implementing the new indi's(changed today), but I have noticed a strange one: EA is trading on EU,EJ offline charts, but not on AU, same settings. Any clue why? Could be a digit issue, as AU is 0.0000X ?

I had the same problem with no trades on AU... I changed the following user input, after that, AU started trading..

AudPairsPositiveOnly=False

I am not a coder and do not even know what that User input does but after changing from True to False,
AU started trading.

FYI.. Trading 4 pairs today netted +99 Pips from London open to Close

That filter is in because the swap costs can be quite large for those currencies AUD, CAD, NZD but turning off stops this and allows trades as you have stated.

I am setting up new thread now :D

Lol, of course, what a noob I am! Just throwed out the swap filter, forgot about it!That was the coolest issue I ever had! Why an EA doesn't trade, when I tell it NOT to trade, hahahahaha!

These are short term trades (open/close same day), so the swap shouldn't be an issue, I'd remove the function from the EA, but it is configurable ;-)
