DislikedDoes anybody know where Paul can be contacted? Here he wasn't active since October. He has also an account on myfxbook. What is strange that some EAs only have results in August lastly. I hope that nothing terrible happens! :/Ignored

DislikedApologies to everyone for any inconvenience caused by my absence.

DislikedEquity Guardian EA This little EA is designed to protect your account from unexpected drawdowns and/or lock in profits. Note: It does NOT place orders. It does NOT amend existing orders. It can be used alongside any other EA or manual strategy that you care to use. Features Monitors EQUITY, not simply floating profit/loss. Can monitor all trades, trades submitted by any EA or trades submitted by a specific EA. Closes all monitored trades if equity falls below a specified loss limit (expressed in either an amount or a percentage of the opening balance)...Ignored
Disliked{quote} The next version includes a trailing profit option. This works similar to a trailing stop, except that it keeps a track of profit, not stop levels. e.g.: Trailing profit trigger = $250 Trailing distance = $100 Trailing step = $10 In this example, when the profit hits $250, the trailing profit is triggered. The trailing profit is moved to $100 behind the current profit ($150) When the profit increases to $260 (so, +$10 - the 'step'), the trailing profit will be moved again to within $100 of the new profit ($160). If the price retraces, and...Ignored

Disliked{quote} Hi PaulDV, good to have you back. Im running into a situation where my opening balance on Equity Gaurdian 1.141 runs out of synch with my account balance. I happens in the following situations; 1) When my individual EAs hit a TP or SL and close 2) When I have roll over commissions during inter trade breaks 3) fi I manually close trades. My work around is that I fiddle with the "Date of opening balance" in the Equity Guardian inputs Ideally what I would like is that my Opening Balance on the Equity Gaurdian refreshes every second to keep...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Hiya, This is not how EG is intended to work. EG is intended to monitor the gain (or loss) of an account over a period of time, and to terminate all trades once a specific profit level has been reached, or a specific loss limit has been reached. This is intended to be across a number of trades, with the balance changing in the interim. The Opening balance is how it keeps a track of how much equity has been gained or lost. If the opening balance changes every time the account balance does, then there's no way to determine how much equity...Ignored
Dislikedthank you paul for sharing it. when i used this EA something happened i thought report it, at first when added it to chart it was fine but as soon as i changed the input "Magic number to monitor" to 0 it closed all my trades immediately.Ignored
It would then have compared the equity gain or loss against the Close On Equity figures you had previously entered, and if either of those values were exceeded, it would trigger an automatic close of ALL outstanding trades.
So, as I said, this is exactly what I would have expected.
DislikedThank you for a useful tool. It's promising in combination with my new strategy I'm developing. However I seem to run into a problem more often than not. The current profit and trailing profit does not seem to always update, and I have to manually switch time frame for it to update, which kind of makes it out of sync with the values I've inserted in the options. I have "Refresh Interval" set at 1. One trade that got opened yesterday did not sync at all and I had to switch the time frame this morning for the trailing profit to trigger. Maybe I'm...Ignored
Disliked{quote} That sounds very odd behaviour, and isn't anything that I've encountered myself before. Switching timeframes would re-initialise the EA using the existing parameters, which would explain why that temporarily corrects the figures, but I can't see anything in the code which would cause the figures to go out of sync. The only thing which comes to mind is the use of timers: EQ uses a timer to 'wake up' and recalculate the current set of figures. It could be that this is being interfered with by some other process - do you have anything else...Ignored
