No, the current version does not do this but I'm considering its implementation as per post 240

Bill, I'm testing latest version with SET TP=False with Lot size 0.1. I had a few trades tonight on a few pairs like GA est SL was $2.75 (5pips)but was still not closing at 65pips(which I closed manually, ACAD +36pips $26.44 didn't close SL 5pips $3.01 close and 3 other pairs....I was just wondering why those didn't close at higher pips then SL Pips?.....I looked at other results and they closed at 5pips.

Maybe because the individual trades don't have a TP price and they close at the break even setting?
Make input AutomaticHedging=false and see if this solves your problem.
In the next EA version this limitation will be fixed.

I'm sorry but I cannot post the "include" files because some of the new code in V23 is from a different EA which is not authorized for distribution.

New version 32,

INSTANT BE:
When the break even button is pressed, if a trade is profitable, the EA will place a break even at a distance specified by input InstantBE
This is done in cases where we are not comfortable with the price action so we can choose to quickly secure our trade by pressing the BE button.
This feature is independent of the Automatic BE which is specified by input MINProfitBEL=10.

ADDED TP When Autohedging=true
When Autohedging=true the EA Will place a TP if the new input EnableTPin_Autohedging=true
Also, when Autohedging=true ,a losing trade will be hedged at the distance specified by input HedginSL

HEDGED TRADE DECOUPLING
When a trade becomes hedged, it now decouples from the EA and it can be closed manually at a later time.
This is done because if we have symbol BasketTP enabled, then the EA will be closing the profitable side of the hedged pair of trades
and we don't want this to happen.
We want to manually release the hedge at a critical level where the losing trade has higher odds of recovering its losses.

Note:If we untick the box "Only Manage Panel Orders" then the EA will manage the decoupled hedged trades.

{quote} Thanks for this update, I look forward to testing this. At the risk of this sounding like a conspiracy theory, is it technically possible for an EA with DLL access to transfer data "back home?" .
I doubt that anything like this is possible but I guess even pigs would fly if they had wings

Actually much of the secrecy on EA's and indicators is unnecessary because nothing works all the time
and without a trader's experience and discretion they are useless to anyone else
so I don't know why anyone would bother to copy someone else's setup.

But I understand why a programmer woudn't want to have his code copied and circulated over the internet.

{quote} . How about reaching outside of the root MT4 directory?
I think those who would want to search our hard drives, e.g. perhaps secret services of x countries have probably already done this
through the use of the internet hardware they sell us or the gadgets we buy from them and then connect to our network through their supplied apps.

It is very very very very hard to protect ourselves from such activity.

I don't have much to hide but I'm still concerned so I don't keep much of value on the home network
I also use a VPN and I replaced the freely supplied internet hardware I got from my internet provider with higher grade ones
and I separated my main home wifi from my add on devices (eg, TV, solar system, robot vacuum cleaner etc etc ) which are only allowed to connect to the guest wifi. But nothing is 100% secure so it is best to keep our personal details off our computers and to avoid connecting our cell phones to free wifi networks.

Hi Bill, just installed new version and when I place trade I get common error....i've changed nothing...restarted MT4
2020.06.18 09:55:11.947 '11288616': order buy 0.02 AUDJPY opening at market sl: 73.422 tp: 74.022 failed [Common error]
What could the cause be?
I have another EA running with USDCAD and it was trying to open trades although I installed HP32 on AJ/EJ/UJ/NJ only where box is ticked...manage HP trades only????
2020.06.18 10:04:57.204 '11288616': order sell 0.04 USDCAD opening at market sl: 0.00000 tp: 0.00000 failed [Common error]

Now I put HP V23 back on and get this message
2020.06.18 10:18:08.297 HedgeTradePanel23 AUDJPY,M5: CPanelDialog::MarketOrder Error: no error
couldn't place order but V23 closed other trades from different EA.....because I dind't have box ticked...

Sorry, just discovered that MT4 wasn't connected to server.

This can occur but it is often due to the broker's server having technical problems. The broker fixes it after a while.
This error could also be due to poor internet connection.
Can you place manual trades? right click with your mouse on the chart and place a pending order.

If you still get this error then its Not something that you've added to your chart.

Now, something else which is not so relevant in this case but which could help you with your MT4's response time.
Try not to have many charts open and not to load 50 copies of EA's and indicators on them.
If you do need to have many charts open, then reduce the number of bars on the chart,
you can click on TOOLS, OPTIONS, CHARTS and reduce the max bars on chart to something low, eg 5000 or even lower.
If we only look at today's data then we only need enough bars to cover our screen.
Even your trend indicators would not need more than 500 bars.

{quote} What about max bars inhistory?
You can leave the history bars as default.
This version uses historical data for calculating the average daily range of a currency pair.

I have written some instructions on how you can update your MT4's history here
https://www.forexfactory.com/showthr...8#post13002828
But if you have previously used Version 23 then you don't need to update your MT4 history again.

Bill, great work with this version, it has done much better for me.
Just a question, I have an Ultra Micro account with XM and they use suffix like AUDUSDm#.
There is no entry in setting where you can enter suffix...so I need to enter all pairs with ..x# ....I did it but wouldn't take trade

Yes the code is not written for such brokers and I will not facilitate them because these special letters and symbols
are added to currency pairs in order to restrict the use of EA's and to reduce our odds of winning.

I find this practice unethical. I suggest you avoid any broker who does not use the standard naming format
Since you are in Australia, why don't you use one of the local brokers?
I use Globalprime , a true A-Book broker who can provide trade receipts so you can see that your trades are actually reaching the market.

Someone has just sent me a PM asking me about a particular broker and this reminded me how much I hate SOME B book brokers.
I will not reveal the name of this broker in public but here is what I replied.
Quote
" Hello my friend.
No xxxxxx are not an A book broker, they are a B book broker.
They will keep their clients trades in-house and they will NOT provide trade receipts even when you dispute particular trades.
I don't have a problem with B book brokers provided they play the game fairly.
However, since my trades are not going to the open market, it makes me wonder what else they will do to make me lose.
Does their MT4 platform slow down or freezes up at particular times?
Do they slip me more than usual when I enter and exit trades?
Are there suspicious spikes in their data feed?

If you look at the daily open price gaps with this particular broker, you will often see price gaps which are not there with Global prime.
If you go back in history and compare all the market spikes on AUD pairs you will notice that broker's xxxxxxx spiked bars
are over-extended and beyond the bars of other brokers.

The latest trick they have implemented only 2 months or so ago ( they applied this to their demo accounts first to see their clients reaction) is to reduce the maximum number of trades per account to 100 so if you use an EA which trades many currency pairs and uses averaging into positions to increase your odds of winning, you will have a problem.
How do I know all this? because I have been their client for years and I still maintain 1 account with them out of revenge for their fake bars,
My intention is to make them pay. "

So My dear friends, do yourselves a favour, and avoid dishonest brokers.
Decent brokers like GlobalPrime deserve our support.
Have a nice day
