I have set up the main and multitrades exactly the same regarding trading size, the main trade gets set at the risk percent set but the multitrades keeps getting set to the minimum of 0.01 lots.
I did not actually test the code, so it may not be quite right - and adding new stuff to a multi-system trader is harder to get right than you can ever dream is possible. I gave serious thought to refusing your request because of this.

Have you had trades send with incorrect lot sizes?

Thanks Steve, much appreciated.
Excellent - whilst you're in a good mood could you also add an ATR based TP/SL for the multi-trades? :smile:
No. The whole point of multi-trades is to be in and out quickly for a set profit that is easily realisable.
Fair enough :)

Yes Steve, EURCAD main trade lot size was set by EA at 0.05 lots, all corresponding Multitrade lots were set at 0.01 lots.

I run 2 PP S platforms with 2 GlobalPrime demo's.
To the best of my knowledge settings are the same except for a difference in time frames.
Trading time is set at 09.10,-09.25 for both demo's.

Today I was late to start the platforms so I expected to miss tradings for today. Much to my surprise the one platform indeed showed no activity, the other started opening trades and pendings immediately after I started the platform 1t 13.30.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to find an answer to this strange happening?

Thansk, Willem

take a screenshot of your 1TF EA's setting page - the trading hours area.

Thanks for your quick reply. The requested screenshot is attached. The settings on the other EA are identical.

Like gringoh has pointed out, your missing a "+". Try inserting it i.e. +09.10,-09.25

These are the moments one wishes to hide under a table covered with a huge cloth.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Hello I have searched this thread to see how others have handled this error. I cannot find anything that relates to this EA. I am getting the 4108 error, see below. Would anyone be able to help me know what I can do to remedy?

Thanks in advance for any help.
