{quote} Hello yousername, Great job here, something I hope to be able to use soon. Now my question is about the FG text commands: WHY? Why the need for this type of input? Can't all the style of grid be in the preset of the EA in a dropdown menu? The selection can be displayed on screen in the control box. Is there really a need to be changing all the time? Not for me, I would choose 1 style and then trade it, most probably after news to catch those fast moving markets. Also, there is no user input for the Comments? It only shows ChooChoo for all...
Lol sorry for my bad English. I will fix it it.

Why the command? So if you have your own custom Indi you can access FG's parameter by creating an object with Id that contains the command. Then FG will read and execute the command accordingly.
In addition to that it is more simple and make sense. I want it to be like SIRI or Ok Google or Cortana where you can interact using language. If I use button, the first problem is thr layout problem and everyone have different screen size from HD to 4K monitor. Furthermore more work which I don't like. I like to keep it simple. Imagine with the command, you will be like GOD Genesis 1. Also with command it's more personals like having an assistant.

Nothing wrong with the Comment, but I think everyone should be able to input what they need to track their trading (see picture)

For instance, I might want to input " NFP " and after 1 year, I can use TradeReport to display all trades with Comment NFP

And this will give a good way to analyze the trades

As for being like Siri or Google, we already have those things, and I have no need for a custom indicator, whatever that might do, I have no idea.

Only need for a good grid trader to control open, trail and close

I will finish reading the thread but I'm thinking you are going in a different direction, good luck sir

That's a nice idea. I will add it soon. I appreciate it

Well the command is not hard you know. It's human readable and common sense furthermore computer can understand it.

Traditionally it is the EA that call the Indi. Now you can do backward, an Indi that call the EA. That mean all you have to do is make your own custom Indi that produces buy and sell signal without to recode complicated codes I.e. trailing stop, grid style, opening a grid, closing grid etc. Basically I'm making your life easier from doing this redundant task recoding things that I mentioned above, so you as a trader just have to develop a reliable Indi that provide buy and sell signal. While FG take order from the Indi/human and managed grids
That's all.

Just had a grid trade closed (3 parts) but this time none of the limit orders have been cancelled.
Version 1956.
Could it be due to moved TP manually (just in case) and I also use another EA for individual S-losses.

so did you mean in version 1.956 that it didn't close the pending order when you click the close button?
Perhaps try this version mate https://www.forexfactory.com/showthr...7#post10166067

So when it hit the TP, the pending order didn't get closed?
Most odddd LOL
Because if it was like that then it should be obvious in the backtest.

What broker did you use?
What market instrument did you use?

For each lot I pay a commission of $3.50. When I have many trades open, which is the case when I use Flexy , the commission eats away at my profit.
So it would be great if Flexy adds the commission to the total profit target.
i.e I buy 1 lot with a profit target of $100, Flexy then sets PT to $103.5. Flexy then takes 2 more trades, so I now have 3 lots open, my profit target is now $110.5.

ohh i see, the Flexy at the moment presume there's no commission.
Sure i'll add the broker's commission to the calculation.

Thanks for letting me know that

BTW. Are you using RRR Pips or Money?

If you use PIPS that mean I have to convert the commission to pips
