Exactly, it was 9,32% profit in only one night.

this is a bit strange/unusual for me ... you have to run the bot all time - usually - dont switch off the computer ... so all these 10 % have been only luck :roll: ... next time all could be conversely ... may be ... who knows ?

That too could be a plausible scenario. :lol:

The pendings are auto delete if MA cross is set to true. The pends will re-populate in next h4 bar if no MA cross and conditions are met. Andy or others can confirm this too. Thanks.
Yes, correct.

How did you do that ? Your gain was 10%. With default settings, the basket tp is 5%. Unless the basket launched itself after the first tp.
I run it in asian session (default settings) and went to sleep (i live in europe). The computer was off all that time. When i turned it on this mornig all orders closed at once just in the startup of Empty4 and a message appeared saying it was closing orders because of 5%. But the result was a 10% overeall win. The drop of GBP helped. I don´t know how 2.0 manages TP, i ll check it out.
Yes, that would be correct if the EA was switched off, would
See above 5% and close, I'll fix the message to read % up instead of close %

Very plausible if your computer was switched off. I wouldn't do that if it was a live account.

Mr Long, Simplex, CandleTiger and any other contributors I'm not aware of - this is a fantastic piece of work, thanks so much for all your efforts. You people are amazing.

One bug I'm seeing, but only on Pepp3rstone ... when it closes a basket, the dashboard thinks all the trades are still running and lists them in the Open Trades column. I don't know if this is just a dashboard issue or if the part of the EA that does the real work also thinks there's trades running - if true then it'd block new pendings from being created. Also Cowboy IBFX and Alpari give me an alert telling me the basket's closed, Peppers is not.

FWIW in my Cowboy IBFX demo listed below, I'm using OOTB settings except for basketPercentProfit increased to 10, trailPercentLevel dropped to 1 and deletePending to false.

Hi Andy,
great work, I like the new buttons :lol: :lol: :lol:
Will upgrade the dashboard during your codingless time, poor boy.


BTW:
I loaded 1.09 OOTB on Monday morning, 2x trailing stop fired, 6% up in 2 days. :mrgreen:

Hi Andy,
at some point in time, you should check proper error handling of order commands. Just saw during the short market freeze at midnight errors like 132 (market closed), 129 (invalid price), but it seems you repeat often enough to finally place the order.
All times are UTC Page 59 of 160
