Que, thanks so much for this, it's awesome!!

Small problem:

In the data tab, cell C3 (and all below it) is doing G3/10, whereas it should be doing B3/10, since B decides whether it's static or dynamic values. Otherwise it never updates the pip values if you're using a mini lot with the DDE server.

I've written a small EA script to grab my account balance as well and write this to a file, and linked this dynamically to the SS, so that on the first page my account balance is always active. Would anyone be interested in me posting that simple EA?

I've also added a column to calculate the spread, and it adds this value into the SL value, as this way I can do a straight Bid-to-Bid SL calculation, and it should add in the dynamically calculated spread in for me. I'm doing all this in OpenOffice though, so I don't have the excel version of my changes, however it's easy to do. I changed a couple of currency pairs to reflect IBFX's pairs, and since I'm on mini account I changed the symbol names accordingly. Basically, I hacked your SS a bit ;-)

Again, thanks so much for this--it's truly awesome!

Hi Que, thanks for your calculator, I use it all the time. I have a problem, maybe I'm doing something wrong: I have my update set to Metatrader, but on the calculator tab, the pip value shows the manual value, not the mt4 value (values from the data tab).

It looks like the sub-prime shakeout claimed another victim. The GBP/JPY is a killer if it goes wrong.

If you pop in Que, take heart from me and come back Better and Stronger.

Yes, please (posting that simple EA)
And I will be really grateful if you (or Que if he pops up) could teach me to edit this spread sheet (I use MS Excel).
I live in Sweden and my computer formats numbers like 116,50 instead of 116.50 because of which H column interprets F column as text and then not much of the whole spread sheet works
We tried (unsuccessfully) to find the control that requests data from MT4 in hope to edit it... Could anyone tell me which one it is and where to find it?
Anyway, thanks for great work, so far. And than you for the good forum.
Keep it up.
Regards

Hi,

sharing mine (Trade_Journal.xls) as well.
Thanks jest1081,

I would be really grateful, though, if you could teach me to edit your spread sheet.
I live in Sweden and my local settings formats numbers like 116,50 instead of 116.50
That's why B and C columns get interpreted as text and then not much of the rest of the spread sheet works.

We tried (unsuccessfully ) to find the control that requests data from MT4 in hope to edit it... Could you tell me which one it is and where to find it?

Thanks in advance

resurrecting this thread as I've gained much use from Que's calculator in the past. Unfortunately I lost everything on my old computer and now have a new one except it has the latest version of Office (which I don't particualrly like)
Now I simply cannot get the spreadsheet to automatically update the data from MT4. Every time I load it I get a security warning saying that automatic updates have been disabled. When I enable this I get a popup box stating that "MT4.exe cannot be loaded. The program or one of its components is damaged or missing"

Anyone know how to fix this?

edit: problem solved!

Hello Que

Thank you very much for your Money Management Calculator 5, is excellent and it save a lot of time.
I was hoping when connect to MT4, the pip value update to the currency of the broker i use.
Can you please make the setting in GBP or tell me how do it manually.

The easiest thing you can do is just convert your balance to USD yourself. Or you can use any of web position size calculator like this one: fx-calculator.com
