Disliked{quote} No, I did not code the EA to have a max size of grid. There is a setting of max_position that you can set, the default should be 6. Means only open at most 6 position in a cycle. (I did not code this part of Icarus, it remains the same as original Icarus). Atr_Grid_Size() only give you a dynamic grid size to Icarus, no more and no less. Many people have tested Icarus and also tested ATR function for several months. You are the first one to have such issue of ATR. Perhaps you can check the Journal to see whether or not there are error message....Ignored

Disliked{quote} I am not so sure. You can test it on the fore test. I think it is a better way to code a special purpose EA for protecting Icarus by hedging. The EA is not a grid trading EA, it has its own magic number, but can input the magic number of Icarus. Then the EA can monitor the performance of Icarus and decide when to put hedging orders (with its magic number) to prevent Icarus from a huge DD. The EA should also manage two hedging cycles, hedging buys and hedging sells, each orders in the cycle are corresponding to the specific orders they are...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Hey PDX, welcome on board! One of the reasons I switched some months ago is swap. Check my real account wich is attached to this forum, you will find I gained positive swap overall. So I searched short entry points for EURUSD and long entries on XXXJPY (just shying away here currently due to a possible invetion of BoJ). Also I stoped trading US500cash and trade now CFD on SPX500 Future (my broker is offering this swap free). CheersIgnored
DislikedHi there. I finally solved the problem with martingale multiplier less than 1.5 Now you can set martingale lot multiplier 1.1 for min lot = 0.01 (the lot will start to increase from about position 6) {file}Ignored
Disliked{quote} Yeah, bug in the original code, already posted by ksen at the end of March 22 #1961Ignored
Disliked{quote} look for line: int showComment = 0; // flag for comment at left side and set showComent = 1. Getting tiered of hiding it every time when i am debugging.. so i set it to false by default. if you want them back then set it to 1 again in your version.Ignored
