This thread will be about my EA Flexy Grid. It's called Flexy because I want it to be Flexible, I can place the buy/sell grid manually or automatically. Personally I use it manually because I like to have control. I'm smarter than this EA, the EA doesn't take account of other variable i.e. News and what I'm seeing over my eyes and head. Manual Flexy Grid {image} Automatic Flexy Grid. When you click the Manual button and it becomes Automatic button in green color, you should see a screenshot like that below. In order to start the EA to trade automatically,...

Hi Username. I been learning your FG since Sept. 2, 2017 and I reviewed all 57 pages of blog several times. I started to demo trade about 1 month ago and I have doubled my demo account from 4k to 10k, in spite of many mistakes I have made along the way. I have never experienced this type of success and I have tried literally hundreds of Ind, EA’s & systems. This is a great EA when properly applied. Before I dare to go live I must learn few more items (see questions) and I would also like the creator of FG to implement my wish list items.
Questions:
1. Slippage (pips) = 50, how exactly does this work?
2. When failing placing an order, how many or... = 100, What does this mean & how exactly does this work?
3. Time out (in ms) per retry = 10, What does this mean & how exactly does this work?
4. When I use (FG_YS_100) FG command it does not change the (LS=5). How do you change (LS=5)?
5. My (LS=5) did not work. During a news event the spread went well past 5 pips and FG continued to make trades. Can someone confirm this problem?
6. Grid style 1A1 (FG_BUY GRID STYLE_1A1), does the letter “A” still used and means no trade?
Wish list (important improvements to have):
1. FG needs at least one arrow on chart to identify when EA started first trade. When I go back to check on my trades, I can’t tell when the EA started to trade. It’s like starting a race but you don’t mark the starting line.
2. FG reports Profit= 13.50 USD / 15 pips during running of EA. Once EA is finished the profit resets to 0. When I come back in morning and my FG is finished, I don’t know the Profit or Loss because it was reset to 0. Can you program for Profit or Loss to remain on Panel until FG is restarted again.
3. I set FG for grid style 111 for total of 2x 15 = 30 trades (15 limit & 15 stop orders). In order for my strategy to stay profitable, sometimes I need to add extra limit orders. Can you please program a FG command so I can add extra limit orders while the EA is already running? Or a feature where the EA automatically adds additional limit orders as price continues against my direction.
Thank you Username (creator of FG) for this fantastic Grid EA.

Hi Guys! Need some help here:
1) The trade closes after hitting the first grid, i.e: grid space=2pips , the trade closes after hitting 2pips profit (take profit is set at USD 10,000, while my 2pips profit is just USD 2)

2) The forex news calendar is empty once it opens up (i did tried all the method taught on all 57 pages, by OKshop and by Yousername as well) i did drag the zip file inside the FILES folder first and then unzip it, as well as open the zip file copy those files and then paste it into the FILES folder, it didn't work for both of the method

Thanks in advance!!

Here you go bro.
Near the top EA input, you will find DST true or false.
By default it's false.
You should see a correct time now in the news.

Assuming you buy with style 111, all the order and trade will be buy.
with the same assumption as above, for style 101, the middle part of the grid will be a sell trade (opposite of buy), while the other pending order will be a buy pending order.

This goes same as sell.
1 = sell
0 = opposite of sell (buy)

000 SELL = buy stop, buy, buy limit
000 BUY = sell limit, sell, sell stop
101 SELL = sell limit, buy, sell stop
010 SELL = buy stop, sell, buy limit
010 BUY = sell limit, buy, sell stop

Hopefully you see a pattern here
1 buy = buy
0 buy = sell
1 sell = sell
0 sell = buy
(non numeric i.e. XYZABCDEF) = no trade
XX1 sell = no pending order, no order, sell stop

If you ask me, why don't I set stop loss or margin stop on this EA is because I never use stop loss and I know when to quit the market. But if you want to have such feature, please let me know how you want to end the grid when you're in a winning and losing position. Then I will decide which idea is possible to be implemented or can be implemented in few hours.
Group manager hello, thank you so much for sharing.
I am very interested in this grid, and I am personally researching on how to solve the problem of how to solve the problem and how to change the profit target and adjust the fund management mode dynamically.
