Question ... if you had a lot size of 5 standard lots.. should not your margin be greater than $366? Or did you close that trade?
Thnx

Hi Jess, Yes I closed inmediatly!
Thnx.. that gives me an idea on how to avoid those kinds of errors.

Bases on what u showed me, you should not of had a 5lot contract at all. You were using a fixed lotsize of .02. According to the code there is no way that could of turned into 5 lots.. so what i will do then is this. Since i already know the lotsize the user wants to use I will have the EA test that the lotsize sent to the tradeserver is the same as wat you have selected...this should fix/avoid any weird stuff like what u saw.

So stay tuned for an update.

Correct, should have been much, much more than $366.00. This all sounds very confused.... For ex., today, margin used for 5 standard lots E/U at 50-1 leverage would be $11,692.50.

Yep, correct. when the fixed lotsize is selected the ea will use that very number you see in the lotsize input. It does not add nor multiply that lotsize number. The only thing that is done before sendng it to the tradeserver is to compare it to the min and max broker allowed lot sizes. In that case if the lotsizei s below the minimum the broker minimum is used . If the lotsize is greater than the max then the EA uses the broker max.
The only thing i can think of is that there may of been a mt4 glitch. So what i can do is perform a second chk.. where i compare the lotsize that is in the input to the lotsize being sent and if it is radically different cancel and retry or use the lotsize in the input. Its redundant and it wont affect operation, you wont even notice it.

Drakenon:
To make sure EA is working u can do the either of the following two things.

1. Load the cmsm indicator 1st. Then load the EA. In the inputs set the PrintDebug=true (i think it is the last input).
Go to expert logs and show us what u see.

If u do not see a list of pairs then sometthing is wrong.

2.(second way to test)
1st load the cmsm indicator on chart. Then load the EA and sKip the inputs.. Look at the chart and find the gmt hour, take note of the gmt time you see on the screen and ad 5 minutes in your mind. Exanple if u see 17:04 gmt.. then u remember 17:09.
Open the EA inputs again and in the open hour input enter 17:09. Then also set the trade mode to daily.
Wait till 17:09 gmt and u should see the EA open up a basket.
if u do not see the basket open on the gmt hour u set them we need examine the broker you have.

Remember all hours are gmt...

Good luck
Jess

I'm also having a problem with the newest version (CMSM V16.07) like Jagg. Can't load it properly on the chart. However, all previous versions load just fine. I'm forced to use v14.01 for now.

1)In above basket had StepLock/Trailstop set to 12pips. 2)Had PercentOfProfit: BeginLockingProfit set at 30 pips. 3)Had PercentOfProfit: LockPercentLevel set to 75%. When BeginLockingProfit value was reached 12 pips were secured. With LockPercentLevel set to 75% shouldn't 22+ pips have been secured? Basket stopped at at 12 pips. Jess, please advise.

Pippo when i saw yer first image.. i took a peak at the code to make sure that what i saw on yer display was correct. I just needed to know what yer steplock was. Anyhow lets see what is happening.

In the code the profit lock ia calculated like this
Lock=(LockPercentLevel/100) x basket pips
Since u are looking to start at 30 pips... then the first lock would be:
Lock= .75 x 30 = 22.5 ( oops not the same as 12)

Ok looking thru the code....Aaah!! I found the mistake... easy mistake... will correct and provide an updated version... v41 here we come!!

Hey at the least it stopped the basket at 12pips. That is good news.. that means the EA is at the least comparing the basket pips to whatever lock is calculated and ,more important, closing the basket cause the pips fell down to the lock.
