BREAKEVEN UPDATE

I have decided to use the breakeven only based on 2 Factors instead 3. I removed the breakeven feature that is based on the X opened orders.
If one of the 2 factor is true then the breakeven function will be executed

TESTING IT FIRST ON MY BACKYARD

I just want to say

The trigger x pips/money amount will be triggered if the pips and amount you input is >0.
It will not be triggered if the pips and money that you input are a negative value
WHY? Because the point of Breakeven is to not make a winning grid become a losing grid when the market is moving not as expected.
For example if your GRID is in a green area, and the market suddenly go south, then the BE will save you from falling of the cliff.

Hopefully this fixes the BE function.

Next I will modify the email response of BE/R:R ratio/TP etc.
For now I gotta run to some meetings

later

Good point. It wouldn't make too much sense to have BE triggerd based on X opened orders.
Break even is not depending on the number of orderes.
BE is the level always situated at half way of the grid, no matter how many orderes any particular grid has.

But I think it still be useful the have the possibility to call break even,... even on a losing grid.
Because a trader can hope that the price will turn in his favor doing a small correction before hitting his SL(his maximum affordable risk), to a minimum recovery point, and that it would be the BE level situated at the half way of a negative losing grid

The parameter set in the lines are independent to the EAs param. It won't be reflected to the EA's setting.

Good point. If that's the case I will place another input variable for losing BE.
So there will be 4 params.
2 for losing BE
2 for winning BE

No. Is not the case. It would be redundant to have 2 buttons.
As break even means 0 pips or 0 $amount, doesnt matter if grid is bullish or bearish, and doesnt matter if grid is losing or winning.
But you said "the BE will not be triggered if the pips and money that you input are a negative value" ...well, I just want to be sure that BE is triggered ( one button's enough) even the grid is losing.

There will only be one button but 4 params.
If the 2 params of a losing BE is set>0 then losing BE will not be activated.
If the 2 params of a winning BE is set<0 then the winning BE will not be activated

If there's only 2 params and shared between losing/winning then it's not convenience I reckon.

After introducing BE to FG there are situation where sometime it hang. E.g. AU just now hang. Had to reload EA to the chart and when reload all grid closes. But another pair GU running ok.

I'm not sure where this misunderstanding comes... in my opinion BE doesnt depend on losing/winning and it should be convinient to be called whenever trader feels the choosen trend is fading.
All I want is to have the opportunity to call BE ( to push that button) when I feel the trend I choose is fading... not the aprioric mode like "set and forget", wich could rise some issues for the strategy logic or for the coder.
The way i see it is simple, -> i push the button to call BE at any moment I want and then means that when the pips or $ reaches zero, EA closes all and stop. Mind that the StopLoss remains active until all stop!

I see. You right. If that's the case then there's no need to have a BE trigger price/pips.... What was I thinking... So when the button is pressed, whenever the grid reaches the BE price, grid will be closed.
