Due the fact that my Laptop did an Automatic Update The EA was confused So I closed the EUR/USD swing trade at breakeven.

I then saw a good opportunity to open a GBP/USD swing trade.

Hi,
good stuff.
May I ask you how to get the EA?
Is it for sale somewhere?

I do something similar but hack in the orders manually and some days can get pretty long that way.

Thx for sharing your trades.

I don't think it will be always this good because the market is very gentle at the moment.
