Hi yousername! Great project, thanks lot for sharing. Not sure if fixed at version 1.5 but my testing of version 1.2 showed a bug u might like to check. My grid got closed at tp but just a single trade wasnt closed. Please see attachments. No errors at the experts log.. Thanks! DT {image}
If I'm not mistaken, I guess it was you who asked whether the BUTTONS can be used in the backtest?

I guess it couldn't. Visual Mode and Real Mode has different nature. So there's nothing I can do beside you gotta perform forward testing.

Thanks TudorIoan for the explanation and thanks yousername for all your hard work.

I've downloaded and am trying it out, but due to lack of time i'm struggling to keep up with all the posts and updates.

I've set to TudorIoan settings, but can someone explain why if i buy the first thing EA does is sell and vice versa? thanks

{quote} I can add some feature on the USE LINES button to close a grid when crossing the horizontal line i.e. NAME_TP NAME_SL NAME_C TP = It will take profit (close the grid) when there's profit in the grid SL = It will stop loss (close the grid) when the grid position is losing C = It will close the grid The grid will be close when the price crosses the line accordingly. What do you think? ============== BTW I don't understand this part of your message I think currently the sl & tp say 25 pips is the average of all current active orders p/s Or...
Late reply fell asleep dreaming of Grids. On the risk reward currently if set tp 25 pips. To hit 25 pips is base on active average price (e.g. 3 orders short. (1.3310 / 1.3305 / 1.3300) tp 25 pips. ?

Never mind I just hit the 111 button......still playing around

it would be interesting to try this at News time. set a sell with a SL of 30 and TP of 60 and a buy with the same.

I presume you used GRID STYLE 101

Here's a scheme of Gridstyle 101, BUY GRID
Buy Stop
Sell
Buy Limit

Sell is the center of the grid
Buy Stop and Buy Limit are the bulk orders above and below the center grid.
So the SELL is meant to be a losing position that got hedged by the Buy orders.

Grid Style 111 Buy
Buy Stop
Buy
Buy Limit

As you can see the center of the grid is buy. On top and bottom of it is similar to 101 Grid Style concept, hence there's no hedge or single losing opened order

GRID STYLE 110 Buy
Buy Stop
Buy
Sell Stop

Grid Style 110 could not >1 hedge position depending where the market is going. I could have 4 Sell and 5 Buy trade or many other possibilities

I hope you get what I mean. If you don't I can illustrate it in a MT4 chart.

Hahahaha
I think you should go back to sleep mate.
I still don't understand your question

"To hit 25 pips is base on active average price (e.g. 3 orders short. (1.3310 / 1.3305 / 1.3300) tp 25 pips. "

I also think I need to sleep as I can't comprehend your message. LOL

Thanks for the code. Fortunately it isn't because of that.
The issue was because I fiddled around with the code and some how i accidentally removed some the price variable.
So it should be ok now, please retry
