The marked position had further profit potential but was exited too early. I recommend implementing an optional trend-tracking feature using MA5/MA10 as trailing indicators, with automatic position closure upon trend reversal. Note: I adjusted the ATR addition levels to 0.75, 1, and 1.25. {image}

Would like to post an update on my demo account, on strategy 1 with marty/add to trade, I think it collected some profit during a major news release, still in the red from drawdown. Not sure if this is a valid approach, but I have decreased my PT to 1%, thinking of using the GOT on those currency pairs in deep red (like CHFJPY for eg.), if anyone here has just let it run by itself, do let me know. {image}

{quote} I'm letting the bot run, bear in mind that when price gets this far from the original entry it tends to close for a loss anyway after pulling back a little.

whenever I get a zero divide error with the dashboard, it's usually a lack of data history. Run the below two scripts and it's always ok after that. Force load is quicker, you might be able to get away with it just using that, but if not load history which takes ~15 - 20min, will definitely set you right blam {file} {file} {quote}

Would like to provide an update on below, I think the GOT functionality works, it closed my CHFJPY, not sure if it works by taking into account whole of account profit taking from closed trades on that day. I'm going to keep this running for a few more weeks, but it seems like this strategy 1 maintains a drawdown and slowly collects profit on reversal, you may provide your inputs when convenient {image}

Not sure if this is an issue with my setup or not but I'm finding some of the buttons that change lot size aren't working, EURCAD, EURCHF & EURGBP in their default positions, this is happening across three accounts on 2 different brokers, anyone else having this problem? Gene, just wondering if you had any thoughts on incorporating a hedging mode, might be a good way to capitalise on periods of drawdown if theres a signal in the opposite direction after trades on a pair are already placed. Also I turned off trading for gbpchf so it wouldn't exit...
