Same here, no trades and it has been on for a few days now. Only have it on the EURUSD 1 hour chart OOTB.

Says "Position flat", also says "Is Long Entry Allowed" - "NO", same for short. Not sure if that is relevant, but def no trades yet at this demo,

Cheers

I run this bot with all the majors to any "reaction" ... but only flat and flat and flat ... so, may watch it a bit longer although .........

Reduce pips to 10 and volume "2" to 0.. you will get trades..

I see. But makes that sense ? Switching the volume from 2 to 0 means switching this filter off. On the other Hand this filter is a part of the strategy the EA is based on ! :?

So switching all the filters off, sure we'll get "trades". But in this case: are these trades useful ?

Ok - I lowered the volume from 2 to 1, the candle pip is now 15 instead of the default 30.

And yes - EURJPY opened a trade !

Hi Popov !

So, are you here aroung from time to time ?

I have these questions about the parameters in "F7":

What is "Amount to close on reduction" ? "Amount to add on addition" ? (hmm is it for the martingale ?)
What is "Ensure maximum Stop Loss" ?
