• Trading this robot without understanding its underlying trading strategies guarantees traders will lose their money.
• This is not a set-and-forget ea; there is no such thing and anyone who tries to claim there is, is either stupid or lying. This ea requires frequent manual intervention.
• At best, a trading robot is only 90% as good as the manual strategy it trades. At best. At worst, it can be much less effective. If the strategy is rubbish, so is the robot.

Could possibly monitor and save the maximum draw down, could also send the message when draw down = % x.

Code: Select all

double maxDD;
double dD;



//int init()
if (!GlobalVariableCheck("_maxdd"))
    GlobalVariableSet("_maxdd", 200000.00);


if (GlobalVariableCheck("_maxdd"))
    maxDD = GlobalVariableGet("_maxdd");

//start

if (AccountBalance() > 100.00)
    dD = (countRunningProfit() * 100 / AccountBalance());

if (maxDD > dD)
{
    maxDD = dD;
    GlobalVariableSet("_maxdd", dD);
}

// Display
SM("Maximum DD %: " + "(" + DoubleToStr(maxDD, 2) + ")" + NL);
SM("Current DD %: " + "(" + DoubleToStr(dD, 2) + ")" + NL);


//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Get profit/loss for all trades
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
double countRunningProfit()
{
    double cash = 0;

    for (int i = 0; i < OrdersTotal(); i++)
    {
        if (OrderSelect(i, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES))
            if (OrderMagicNumber() == MagicNumber)
            {
                cash += (OrderProfit() + OrderSwap() + OrderCommission());
            }
    }
    return(cash);
}

As you can see if you compare the open orders tab ... the accounts trade differently. While the trade account seems to work as aspected, the control account is wildly opening pendings every few minutes. Thing is ... I don't have any clue why this is happening. All is set up according Steve's manual, the charts are the same, the indi is the same version, settings of BHGB are identical except for the parts of that control and trading account stuff. I am somewhat helpless
