{quote} Yeap, finally, everybody knows now that BE stands for breakeven, no problem lol And yes, the BE level is always at half way back of the original movement (1/2 correction from the original swing) ...see drawings above (edit: ...and mind that fkn spread deviation for your calculations)
Yeah I always take spread into account.

Hahahha i never heard any one talk to me "Hey man, have your business BE yet?"

ROTF, of course BE - a big zero profit - sounds as a stupid target...
But I guess in trading is sometimes better to quit a weak trend while you are still in a small profit or at some no loss (zero profit) level/point

LOL, sure you will be able to set the breakeven value to your own liking. You will be able to set it in the EA's properties.

Here's a layman logic of the Breakeven logic.

1. Grid opened
2. You clicked the breakeven button to green
3. The grid only has 1 opened position at start
4. Further down the line the market executed some of your pending orders.
5. when you have >=2 order gets executed + breakeven button is green = BREAKEVEN function starts working.

You will also be able to set the breakeven function will be run there are >=X active orders.

SO there will be 3 paratemers
Parameter 1) Use Breakeven? (Boolean)
Parameter 2) Breakeven amount (double amount $$$)
Parameter 3) Breakeven triggered after X opened orders (integer)

Next update will be on 1. Closing order grid from inside out of the grid. 2. Preserve the last setting whenever the VPS/Laptop/PC got crashed/burned/shutdown 3. Add additional feature on the USE LINES like in here {quote} Most likely #2 can be done over the weekend because the market is close over the weekend.
#1 and #2 are challenging. I think i dont want to waste so much time on it.
If any one is willing to take the challenge or provide a method for #1 and #2 then I guess we all will be happier.
Let me know if anyone is interested, I'll tell you what the main issue is.

Anyhow
I will go ahead adding more feature into the EA as the following
- BREAK EVEN button
- Add additional feature on the USE LINES

{quote} 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} Yes, I do. This EA (all the new versions starting from 1.6) enhance that concept. Look for yourself my detailed exposure down in my attachement. You can apply RR1:1 very easily now, with the advantage that you can afford now to stand and resisting few levels that market fights against you. ...reloading your chances for a happy result edit: adjusted error, example now is TP/SL 60 pips (3 orders at 10 pips space for 30 pips swing = 60 pips) Supplemental lecture : To set an endless pyramid pendings grid, adding blindly pending orders...
If you allow me... here is a fortunate application of my RR 1:1 described above.
Easy +180 pips ...imagine what big movement in the market you would need to gain 180 pips without the Grid Trading!
...using just a TL to choose a start for your Grid Trading.

I place one 2B & one 2S at upper and lower candle before high impact news.

Order close(2B) after hitting R:R target but immediately it auto start to place order again. I press "close grid" button and again it started another auto place order. The auto trade only discontinued after I deleted 2S line. Is there any setting that I done wrongly? thanks

When you closed the grid, did you keep the line on?
Because if you do, it will keep open a grid whenever the price touches the line
In the next build probably I will make sure the EA rename the horizontal line (REMOVEs THE _2B etc)

Thanks for pointing out the issue! I appreciate it mate. God bless

FF ECON NEWS RSS bookmarked for development! http://cdn.forexfactory.com/ffcal_week_this.xml https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWDwa5ToY3o
Does any one knows any econ calendar XML RSS feed that has Actual,Expected and previous result information?
I want to implement economic calendar into the EA.
Unfortunately the FF econ calendar rss isn't what i expected.
If we could have the actual result information then we can use it for decision making.
