{quote} yes it is for NZDUSD and real account The set runs at 6 August. And the Server make every Sunday a Auto Server reboot. So there are many many times Restart the mt4.
Please Reset and change the parameters according to what you want.
I used to experience this not knowing the cause, I did Reset and rewrote then okay.
Simple logic, it should not happen.
Sometimes about writing "08:00" there may be "low value" that is not visible to the eye.

Hi Margiyono,

Is there a way when using the EA manually, that when a trade reaches it's goal and closes with profit, that the EA goes to sleep until another manual trade is executed?

Currently, when following a trend, in this example long, I trigger an manual trade, the EA closes it in profit, but then will open an short trade against the trend. Is there a way to stop this from happening?

Sorry, another question in regards to my previous. Once you are in a manual trade, does the "Signal Level" have any impact on the lot progression or is lot progression strictly based on grid level?

Thanks,

Hai Anpar

Sorry Im forgetting to tell ideally different charts (eg for par EU):
1. Make a chart with a small EA signal with Magic number 199401 and Manual_Trading_Active = false
2. Make a chart with EA for first order manually, with Magic number 199400, Manual_Trading_Active = true and Signal_Level = 100.
The purpose of this Chart is specifically to continue transactions that have been done manually, so that EA on this chart does not do first orders except from orders from manual.

Note
* Fill in the other parameters on chart 1 and chart 2, the same except Magic_number, Manual_Trading_Active and Signal_Level.
* EA with magic_number 199400 will receive orders manually from all flatform including from the mobile phone

Signal_Level is only for determining trigger orders, not related to Grid levels.

Hi Margiyono,

Thanks for the explanation, let me see if I got this right.

If I'm trading from the platform that the EA is on, I can basically set the EA up with a signal-level of 100 and the EA will manage all manual trades for that chart. With signal lvl = 100, it's virtual impossible for the EA to trigger another trade, basically putting the EA to sleep until another manual trade is triggered. Is this correct?

For manual trading just clicking buy and sell, can you explain why I would need the first chart with "trigger Manual trading = false". Wouldn't this make the EA trade automatically?

Sorry for the questions, just want to ensure I get it, before going live.

Hi Anpar

1. Right, like making EA sleep for first order.
2. first order manually, can be Buy / Sell - BuyStop / SellStop - BuyLimit / SellLimit.
Why on the first chart (in the example with magic 199401) must be with Manual_Trading_Active = false?
If "true", EA will recognize all transactions that are done manually, so if EA has a signal for But / Sell fire there is already a transaction from manual, then EA does not open order. ==> So it's better to distinguish Magic_number.

Note: For manual pending order transactions (Buy / Sell stop) from anywhere:
1. Pending_Order = true ==> Orders will chase prices
2. Pending_Order = false ==> Order waits until price touches.

Hi Anpar


I see you use 9 pairs, in a day with lots of transactions, profit is around 7%.
Be careful in managing the MM to keep profit and low DD.

Hi, correct, just keep in mind these are all demo manual trades with the prevailing trend. Also note, at most I'm only in 4 trades at a time. I get my signal, issue the trade and let the EA close it. The cases where you see higher lots are for those cases where the EA closed the initial trade, but then automatically opened a trade in the opposite direction of the prevailing trend. By setting the signal =100, I should avoid these situations in the future. When I go live, I only plan on having two pairs trade at the same time.

With that said, I'm still trying to figure out why the EA closes trades when it does, sometimes for only 2 or 3 pips, is there a way to increase this? All my trades were made on 1 minute charts.

Thanks

Ok, I got it, first chart is to allow the EA to do it's thing, what the EA was designed for...Automatic trading. Second chart is for manual trading only.

I will have two separate accounts, cent account for automation and ECN for manual trading only for which I will have more control.

Thanks for the explanation.

Closing settings, please adjust the parameters, namely: Profit_Lock_Firsttime, Profit_Trailing_Start and Profit_Trailing_Step.

found the Problem:
max open key is: magic only, then he open all trades with the same lot.

max open key is: magic & pair, then he work normal with Martingale.

here is a Little bug.

Yup, the problem is Unique key Magic Number Only.
Found it, still testing. If the lotsize is not correlated.
Hmm ... but sleepy , tomorrow the test will continue if it's fresh (now my local time is 00:51 am)
