Disliked{quote} Knowing metatraders servers, knowing the speed you can copy trades in metatrader or via bridge i'd say that any high speed trading would not work with the way they are set up. Its also unmanagable flow it kicks liquidity providers and can make prices really bad. Generally flow that is of this nature requires a higher spread to assure execution and maintenance of liquidity relationships.Ignored

Does anyone use a similar tool (indy MT4), with the % values correct for different days ... week ... month ... initial period?
Because mine, is obviously wrong.
Maybe, only the daily % is right.

{quote} the % you see will change by the history option under the acct history tab you select...for example,if last month, the result may show up differently for today than if only today. {image} this version works fine. {file}
It's the same version I have.
It just never worked well with prop accounts. Don't ask me why.
Even now, on my personal account, it works and I can view the correct results, using settings from 1 to 5.
With the props (three different ones), it only works with 1 enabled and therefore the data is wrong.
Your version must have some changes in the code, because it also works on FTMO 1 to 5.
Ehhhh .... memory from thread "As simple as possible: 00 level trading".
Thanks.
On the left my version. On the right yours. A big difference

Best wishes for Happy Holidays to all. 
A due update on the indicator in post 5069.
He has been downloaded 19 times. It is possible that these 19 Traders did not know this indicator.
Just some key points about this:
1) the number of pips is correct, only if there are transactions exclusively on currency pairs. A single operation on other instruments, and the count is wrong.
2) the monetary value is always (and in any case) correct.
3) all values refer to calculations based on closed transactions, except for the "current" item which, on the contrary, refers only to open transactions.
4) The calculations are based on the sum of all the transactions present in the MT4 history. The presence of only 1 indicator is sufficient.
5) the value expressed for the week, refers to the last 5 trading days (including today) and not to the calendar week.
6) the % value, on the other hand, requires a more detailed and is very, very important explanation. You may have a wrong evaluation of your results if you don't know this info (regarding the subsequent info, I can guarantee that they are safe, having used and checked this indicator, for several thousand hours).
Conditions referring only to the % calculation:
a) the complete history must be present. With an alternative or custom period, you will have "different" results.
b) in the indicator settings (menu), there is an "eiPercent" item. This item is meant to set the % calculation on a predefined period and will be right for that period ONLY.
To give an example, the number 5 refers to the calculation on an annual basis. In this case, the % will be correct ONLY for the year and all others will not be correct. If you select number 1 (day) it will be right ONLY for the day and wrong for all other periods.
c) the % calculated for each the day with the date present (four values in total) will always be inaccurate, as there is no appropriate calculation (in %) in the indicator code and relative setting (number) in the indy menu.
As a result of all the different points expressed above, over the years I have changed this indicator many times, also creating "minimalist" versions, with display of only even some information.
As written in another post, they all still work today, but only on personal accounts. On accounts of 3 different prop companies, no. Until the version posted by profitfarmer.
Found the mq4, I could also modify this version and it corresponds (as values) to 100% of the original.
Changes applied:
- presence in the configuration menu of the explanation referring to the "eiPercent" numbers.
- exclusion of the value in pips.
- exclusion of the 4 day values (those with the date).
- insertion of a starting value of the calculation (for example referring to the date of opening the account). But this I will be able to check if it is correct, only in a couple of weeks, with the new year.
- now the chart remains clean after removing the indicator.
If a lot of information provided by this indicator is superfluous, there is a version "only open trades and daily result".
Very practical and safe to control the risk/result of the moment and of the day. To make sure you stay within the parameters of the prop company.

{quote} on a wym chap do you know of anything that auto sets a stop loss x distance away when you enter a trade as some places specify you have to have a stop in instantly some give you 2 mins others none many thanks
Yes. I wrote something about a similar instrument a few days ago.
Great tool. Reliable.
Also works on pending (pending orders)
{quote} I wrote a post in response to this, where I warned that an "almost" identical tool I was using, was creating big problems for me. I finally downloaded what you indicated, and it's perfect. Hundreds of orders set up to perfection and no problem moving -after- the levels. It was fair to make this review. Thanks for your advice.
