@aeseme - persistency setting report:

Yesterday due to the basket loss and according to my MM rule I lowered my lot size from 0.2 to 0.17 using persistent input on EAX (using on-screen buttons instead in settings window). Also on each trading session I have "session start resets EAX" set to true meaning it will reset lot size whatever it is to default set 0.2. Today I have newly opened trades with lot size 0.2 each, but not as my earlier entered 0.17 ...

As far as I understand, using persistency setting EAX should keep my manual input of 0.17 instead of 0.2 no matter if the EAX is reset, which indeed is a wise setting to refresh EAX every session.

Is it a bug or everything is ok here? If is ok, could you please consider fixing so that if Persistency is enabled, EAX will be reset but will not override my manually inputted settings? It really makes process difficult if needs to be inputted everything all over again.

Just looked into auto-generated persistency settings file and it does not seem to have lot settings.

Dear @aeseme, Improvement Request on Money Management
@aeseme, I would agree with belie that we need auto lot calculation implementation into EAX. So I am his supportive voice on this matter

Dear @aeseme, Improvement Request on Money Management Win rates of my strategies are very low. But I'm looking for higher rewards ratios. When I do trading manually the profits come with equal risk percentages (1% or 0.5% per trade balance). I'm usually looking for 1:3 RR or higher. As an example, Let's say I use SL as some percentage of ADR and I need EAX to calculate the lot size automatically before triggering the trade based on the given risk percentage (currency pairwise calculation). At the same time, every currency pair has different ADR...
Auto lot size based on ADR could be a good addition indeed. Cheers!

{quote} Hey, buddy, thanks for your reply and also for a new EAX version for coming 2022 year! I do agree with what you say, but I'd venture to extend my example of "3% were reached, 1% was locked. If computer goes off - your profit too goes off!". Please read carefully as it might take some time to sink in Imagine the picture, which I've observed lots of times over this year: trades have reached 3% and 1% was locked by EAX. My pc after ordinary update comes back to life and automatically launches the MT4 terminal (internet is ok, so...
I see, and I'll consider it. Meanwhile, while you save for an UPS (yes, this is a must if you want to take this serious at home) or hold to have enough to hire a good enough VPS provider, at least for the unplanned windows updates reboots you can follow a workaround already suggested some posts ago.

I see a "lot=0.2" in line #5 of that presets file, meaning that having persistency preset enabled, EAX screen should show lot size as 0.2.

Sessions reset doesn't overwrite settings, persistent or not, only reset counters, maxs. mins, etc.

I made a quick test here on my end and lot size sticks to what I manually set on EAX screen while I have persistency enabled in properties, and the lot size value I see in the auto-generated preset file corresponds to what's on-screen too, so what you're reporting looks kinda weird having related preferences set as they should.

What comes to my mind is that perhaps inadvertently you did the other way around... with persistency enabled and 0.2 on-screen, you changed lot size to 0.17 in properties window, being this latter ignored because of having on-screen persistency enabled.

Question... When those 0.2 lot size orders were opened, what was on-screen? 0.2 or 0.17?

PS: I see in the pic attached to your post that you had in fact 0.2 on-screen, so chances are you did the other way around by mistake... or perhaps you enabled persistency after having changed the on-screen value?

Thanks for looking into it. I have EAX made screenshots so let them speak for themselves - they say sometimes it is better to see than try describe in thousand words Bear in mind that it was running completely on Auto, except my manual input of lot with buttons on screen for 0.17. No changes were made on properties window where I had 0.2.

I am using persistency setting for couple of months now, so no changes were made.

Yeah, but I did draw this file to attach only when reporting this matter to you. I bet that this setting after close of the basket with 0.17 was what it was on screen, i.e. 0.17. But after new session it was again 0.2. It is not the first time I notice such anomaly.

{quote}Question... When those 0.2 lot size orders were opened, what was on-screen? 0.2 or 0.17?
My technical question is this - when does EAX updates the Persistency set file? Immediately after on-screen change? Or other time?

Because the file's last modified date still is Dec 10, whereas problem that I am chasing occured on Dec 14, which means file wasn't updated when I made the changes on dash.

Right now its updated on every call of OnDeinit() despite of the reason, change of program parameters, program removal, chart changes, etc., any. Thus, if you had a blackout or forced reboot in the middle, this could be the cause of this particular issue as on a suddenly end, a proper deinitialization never gets done.

Now, because of your report, I'll set it to save on-screen persistent changes right away (and I will also fix a bug I found while digging on this where on-screen enabled sessions are not being restored while on persistency).

Friends, is there any of you who could recommend a broker which would provide longest possible history record for demo accounts in MT4 terminal and which also would have cent accounts?

Problem is that I am testing the Equity Curve trading strategy since April this year, meaning that there are still ongoing trades since that time to form equity curve from which are other respective trades opened, but my broker began showing trade history only for one last month and thus I cannot form my equity history on MT4 at all. Their support monkey is repeating all over again suggestion that I can download history on their site but i just don't need that. I need history in terminal, so maybe someone could help me here

Hey, mate. Thanks for feedback. Can you please clarify what is your oldest trade in MT4 history that is available? is it demo or real? There's no prob with my broker about the price history, but I am having issue with my trades history. That is why I'm interested in what is your oldest trade in MT4 shown?

open account in 2018 with IC - all trades are visible on LIVE from that year

for DEMO it is different story - history orders are only visible from 2020.01.07

history orders before 2020.01.07, are shown as cumulative "Orders Total (2072)"

check with support is it possible to see previous history in details and they reply with this:
"unfortunately we are not able to provide them in detail."

hope this help

thanks, this does help alot. Will need to think about moving to another broker as for me seeing my past trades for one last month only is a no go. Cheers.

P.S. I'm interested to hear about other brokers too which have decent trade history shown in MT4.
