trend changing week continue, and ST continue hiting. From the first time btm represent this strategy it was like that. first give you a lot then take almost everything or more then everything. Iam thinking about trading this strategy through cycles: 1.) put minimum lot 0.01, wait for 2-3-4 very bad dayas like this (week) 2.) after this bad trading days, for example if you have account 1000€ put 0.1 lot 3.) when EA make 10-20%, again put 0.01 4.)repeat

My opininon is that anybody who is interested in using this strategy/EA on live account should run forward test for at least 3 months on demo, with 2-3-4 different settings on different terminals. And only after that, probably there will be a picture of some kind if this strategy is profitable or not. Otherwise all the suggestions and thoughts are not proved yet. Days/weekly results almost meaningless - at least 1 month of testing is needed.

USD/JPY SL2 was not put to BE after touching TP1... r2 is inside of the bands? Yes, but it was yesterday... Ok, (1) if we use yesterday pivots, than SL2 must be moved to BE. (2) If we use today pivots, than tp1=tp2=r2, because r2 is inside of the bands and then both positions would still be open. But in reality, neither this nor that happened. Why? {image}

{quote} Yes it would. When the dust will a little bit settle. {quote} Maybe later. It's a basic feature of BTM trading approach. A huge desire had been here for this feature. {quote} I answered this. You will get undocumented behavior. And it will be your responsibility. It's very bad idea to corrupt xml config file. regards

{quote} Hi JoeeF, Thank you so much for your dedication on this EA. Just a quick comment regarding BuyVolume2 and SellVolume2, it is also needed for FIFO regulations in US. I have US broker (Oanda) and I can not have two orders for the same pair for the same volume. Thus, I have to set my BuyVolume2 and SellVolume2 to something different than BuyVolume1 and SellVolume1 in order to abide by FIFO otherwise my second order is automatically canceled. So far I have been setting my BuyVolume1 and SellVolume1 to 0.02 and BuyVolume2 and SellVolume2 to 0.01 to get around this. Unless you know of any other way to get around FIFO, Order 1 & 2 must be able to have different volumes set as an option. Just my feedback to you. Thanks again for the tremendous work you have been putting into this. Z

Hi, can we have base signal upper than r1 for buy or lower than s1 for sell ? obviously EA didn't open any orders, but maybe better to remove base signal alert or arrow for this case. {image} {image} {image}
