Really want someone to programme this EA for me

The Parameters are:

The EA will set pending order of buy and sell on the same value
I.e the pending order values will be:
E.g
Buy @ 1.2345
Sell @ 1.2345

N/B;The pending order values must be variable by the trader for the EA
I.e the pending order will be

Then, the stoploss and target will be -30 and +90 respectively

Actually, the stoploss and takeprofit for both the buy and sell will be editable by the trader.

Then, to secure your investment, a trailing stop for both the buy and sell

takeprofit will be set.

Trailing stop must be editable and set to TRUE or FALSE by the trader.

This system works best on pairs that move an average of +120 daily...

I am currently trading this system on my demo and so far, my results are really profitable..........................

Really confusing....

Why not just a buy/sell (instead of pending?)

When does the trailing stop kick in? Does it replace the take profit?

When do you reopen a new hedge?

You can't buy and sell at once in instant execution, but you can in pending orders.

Thats actually what the buy and sell is all about.

Actually the trailing stop is to catch some profit when the trades later tries to go against you.

I will use an example:

like I set pending order bought and sold at 0 and my orders have executed
Buy parameters: T/P:100 S/L:-30
Sell parameters: T/P:-100 S/L:+30

The trailing stops parameters:

Buy/Sell Trailing stop:+5 of stoploss

This could be optional..................


The EA should place trade one at a time per chart

I.e it can place 10 orders on 10 chart

The Hedging EA starts trading at the opening of the day and should end at the closing of the day

Hi osaze,

Could you, please, tell me, what time (GMT) do you put your hedge and what pairs do you prefer. Thanks.

Hi osaze,

I'm quite new to forex so if my question sounds stupid excuse me.

But for me it looks like a breakout system.

Why not just place (taking the numbers from your example)
Buy@1.2375
Sell@1.2315
both with a trailing stop of 35.

As soon as one side reaches the S/L its the same like only having one side opened at the S/L level???

Hehe...

This system looks almost identical to an EA I made a couple of months ago
That one didnt work in the long run... it was a gambling EA.

It didnt have TP, SL og TS, only profit and loss taking in the EA. If I have the time... I could try to modify it with your ideas.

this strategy is really a straddle 30 pips away from the current price....

you are paying double spread when you do it the way the original poster recommended....

just use one order, and a trailing stop....

ps) IMO this is pure gambling.

I used such a stretegy but on scalping basis in my opinion to be able to profit from such stregy you should have atleast 10 000$ if you open trades with 0.1 lots.
