Do someone know how to solve this problem? Basically i wanted to initiate small like a bait and change the size bigger which is the real size i want to use. If the current EA doesn't have the functionality, can someone help to add it? I highly appreciate it. Thank you!

Hey guys, Yesterday I realized all open positions on my real account, so in total I was able to grow 5k to 20k, starting in 2021. Will pause for the rest of the year and have a new run in 2024. Last 15 months I was more or less handling DD, but this is something which you should be prepared when using a grid EA. Thanks for keeping this thread alive, Cheeeeerrrrssss!

Hello Gridders, I have built yet another new exciting feature into Flexy v2.1: It's called "Profit Reducing" which will reduce the take profit per X pips for each opened grid order. So if let's say your take profit is set to 20.0 pips and your profit reducing is set to 2.0 pips, then after 5 orders your take profit will be just 10.0 pips... and after 10 orders (or more) it will be set to the minimum value of 1.0 pip. This will close (loosing) grids in strong trends against the grid much faster, as only a short retracement is needed to close all...

{quote} Thanks for the continued support with the EA, I'm about the play around with it, and I'm looking at the grid settings... For option 2 (sum) - I assume it means I can choose a custom martingale multiplier? All I want to do is have 2 trades of an equal lot, then it multiplies 1.5x, so approx 0.33, 0.33, 0.5,0.5, 0.75,0.75 etc etc Thanks!

{quote} Hello, the indi Bollinger Backs uses arrows, so the buffers are empty as long as there is no arrows plotted on the chart. Therefore select empty type and buffers for arrows will be 3 for buy, 4 for sell. Value is only for oscillators with values like RSI2 with value of 80 or 20 etc. Greetings, Daniel {quote} Hi Severus, what is this fix for? What do you mean by "zero Divice"? {quote} Hello, just try it out. Option 2 means it will use the multiplier. There is no input option to use custom lot sizes. It will simply multiply it by 1.1, 1.3,...

{quote} the version in post #1 is working. profit_lock work when breakout into strong trending move ... it is trailing after present% profit locked. pay close attention to usd for strong bulls or strong bears, then if your are in open positions AU, EU, GU, UCad, UChf .... you will see how profit_lock work.

{quote} Thank you for your explanation. profit_lock does work. It was because I filled in the wrong value before that it didn’t work.

{quote} Default is 1.0, but it says 0.01 = 1%, I assume this is based on you setting your grid position size to 0.01? so if you had 0.5 position size that would = 1% So 1.0 is always 1% right?

{quote} 1.0=100%，That is, no profit lock-in. 0.5 is to lock in half of the profit, and 100pips to lock in 50pips profit. Close the position when the floating profit is less than 50pips
