A brilliant EA - much appreciated.

I loaded v2 yesterday OOTB onto an FXCM demo and it had a very bad day - over 5% down. IS this
a) usual variance and I just turned on wrong day or
b) an error somewhere in my set up ie did anyone else have a negative day yesterday?

I note that some of the trades are not strictly 10.4 ie AO only against the RSI but see you are all working on this. Also one trade after hitting SL, was almost immediately re-entered with the same result.

The trades were all stopped out; and more this morning - now over 8% DD.
Looking at the properties:
*D1 switch is set to true - but I did get two trades in one FX pair, with different lot sizing
(what is Number to Trade? as this is set at 2)
*MA filter set to true
*Boundary filter set to false
As far as I know these are OOTB settings - has anyone else had similar results over the last day or so?
Cheers

Edit: If that fails try restarting Empty4. If that fails ... I'm scratching my head

EDIT: Have refreshed grid, changed TFs, no change.

Hi,

Are the magic numbers the same?

Andy - yes they are.

I never faced this error - neither on my development machine nor on test.

Can you provide ANY information about the circumstances this error occurs? Only on EA startup? On every tick? After trade open? After trade close? ... etc. The more detail you can provide the better. Already did a code review, found nothing ...

Cheers, simplex

This error only occurs in one of my demo Empty4 but not on another one. The error occurs once the EA starts. On every tick (may not be every tick but there are a number of errors within 1 min interval), the same error will appear in the Expert tab one line after another continuously until either I stopped the EA or change the GridMethod to 1 or if I set showDisplay to false.
