Resetting EA

Hi FF Community!

I have a question. I created an EA based on Martingale and it is working pretty good for now. The thing is: I closed all of my trades on friday and reopened mt4 this morning and the EA kept trading with the multiplied lotsize. I would like to reset the EA every monday so that it starts with the initial lotsize. Does anyone know how to do that?

Thanks in advance

Lenny

If you coded the EA with a magic number ... then each monday set a new unused magic so the EA won't see the previous orders from the previous week.

Modification please.

This EA sets Sell Stop & Buy Stop at specific time hour & minute.

I want this EA to set Sell Limit & Buy Limit instead at specific hour, minute & second. I would also like to have Trailing Stop settings among the input options please.

if you have open source file use this code to automatic operation :
if (OrdersTotal()==0) Lotage=Initial_Lot;

notice :
1) Initial_Lot is an external input for initial lot...if there is not any input like this , create it yourself :
extern double Initial_Lot=0.1;

2) Lotage is a variable that is set in OrderSend() function in your EA...find it in your code and use that exactly

3) this code operates fine if you close all positions on Friday as you said
