Keep on posting :D

what Stop Loss do you use?
500 pips SL and TP. Rest OOTB.
You don't want a runner stopped at 100 pips, so basically let SB do the closing.

Keep going. You are being most helpful. :clap:
Had an hour to kill and ran all 26 pairs through the meta-tester (I know...) with last week's data with an averige spread of 5 pips.
In totall I got an growth of 66% with all positions closed on friday..... :smile:
Pair profit ranged from -/-2.5% to +/+10.4%. The biggest loser was because friday-closure, it was positive before.

Can't wait for markets to open, who invented no-trading weekends? :cry:
Some dimwit with a sick sense of humour. :yahoo:

Question for my friends in Upside Down land. We already have a Friday stop trading hour and I am adding a Friday close all trades hour. Do you need a Saturday equivalent?

Maybe a silly question: I use default lotsize,0.01,but still the EA opens trades with higher lotsizes,why?
Haven't opened a trade with lotsize 0.01...
Looking forward to next week :smile:

Your broker probably doesn't allow 0.01, so SB adjusts to the minimum lot size.
