Dear DancingPhil, I love your handle, by the way. I always have a hard time coming up with handles, so, I just take what's given to me most of the time. I digress. I rarely respond here anymore for a number of reasons. Mainly, the ManageTP EA had ...

Trailing Stop Feature — I realize that a lot of people ask for a trailing stop feature. At one point, I had started to add that feature into MTP. However, I realized that it was a whole lot easier to just use one of the other really great ...

Wow, I think that you guys are really short-sighted. First of all, I'm an experienced trader, as many on this forum will attest, so, I'm not speaking with ignorance here. Second, I wouldn't at all agree with your statement that most of the traders ...

2.4 is the last version that I did. I don't know about 3.5. It doesn't mean that it's bad, but, I'm finding that a lot of these derivative EA's introduce both new bugs and new features - not all of them, some of them. I did write the instructions ...

I hope you're not referring to me in this post. I'm not sure how much more clear I can get than I did in the FIRST post where I described each parameter, how it is used, and provided an example scenario with a screenshot of parameters. If you don't ...

I didn't do a version 1.7, so, it's not mine. Sorry.

Here's my settings file. Just load it up.

I don't recall making an EA like this. Maybe someone else made one.

MT4 provides a Journal and an expert log to show what operations are firing. These logs are invaluable in determining what might be happening with any EA. You may want to check the logs first.

First, I'm not sure what kind of behavior you're going to get by setting the second move stops to 0, 0. It should be OK, but, something that I would check. Second, you have your first move stops set to 30,30. This is saying "Move my SL to B/E + 30 ...

Gavin, There are quite a few derivations of the Manage Take Profit expert out there now. Do you have any idea what version you are actually using? stockwet

v2.4 is the last official version. Anything with a different number is either named incorrectly or a different version.

Friday to Sunday. The market still moves on the weekend, we just don't all have access to it. Or bad tick as Scott suggests.

There are multiple versions of the EA. If you go back through the thread, you can probably find a version that does not include the trailing feature.

Since this is a "why" question, I thought I would answer it. The reason was to provide me with an easy, codified manner for taking out unlimited profit targets. It was to enable me to trade multiple systems using this EA for exits without being ...

Moe, have you been drinking today? You're slurring your speech.

This isn't possible to do with all platforms, especially in a rapidly moving market leading up to a news event.

Ha! This is funny. Take a look at the thread "250 pips slippage on currenex"! There are "predatory" traders out there who take advantage of auto-click news traders. Here's how it works. On ECN or similar platforms, these systems have order matching ...

I've tested and evaluated all three. One of the big problems with all of them is that quite frequently, the news will come in just late enough to catch you entering at the top of the spike. After 4 months testing on numerous brokers and several ...
