I'm aware of the problem and I think it's working now. I'll post as soon as I'm satisfied it's gone. Thanks for letting me know.

The magic number only has to be different if you wanted to run 2 or more charts of the same pair.

Is anyone else having problems with the EA occasionally setting S/L on the wrong side of the original order price? I've had two occassions where the S/L for say a buy order was placed above the order price. So if the market turned against me, it would never hit the S/L which would obviously be bad. In one instance on the gbpusd (7/22/08 20:14) the order price was a buy at 1.9998 with a S/L of 2.0048 and a take profit of 2.0998. Another was with the eurusd with a sell order executed at 1.5893 and a S/L of 1.5843 and a T/P of 1.4893 (7/22/08 at 12:28). Anyone else see this happening.

Actually, I think I'm a ding dong. The EA probably moved those stop losses up to keep gains. Duh. Sorry.

As far as I know that's impossible. Any broker would not allow the trade to even be placed if the TP and SL are not on the right sides of the trade. Other than that, I have not experienced it myself. I do have a newer version I will be posting soon which works out a few bugs the EA had with changing direction, adjusting to break even, moving opposite orders, etc. but nothing to do with what you mentioned.

You're correct. My bad, sorry. I wasnt thinking. It's just the break even being moved upwards on the 3rd order.

Yes, points are pips. What settings/pairs are you trading. It's great that you're having good results even with the version posted. I've since reworked to be much more solid on managing the trades and tested everything vigorously. Sometime today or tomorrow I will post the update and revision notes. Thank you for sharing your results with us.

Hello,

Very nice results. Are you using default settings or different settings for each pair. If you are using different settings would you mind posting your set file for each one or tell everyone the different settings.

Thank You,
Jeff

I have been making a lot of changes this week on this EA and have found some very possible hole that were patched. The latest version has been updated on the 1st post. Even through all of my testing, closing MT4 and reopen, knowing the the EUR/USD missed a couple of things this week due to the bugs, and stating the GBP/CHF on Wednesday just to see another pair and how it was performing... I'm still positive!

Of course I feel all the problems have been resolved now but there was some heavy changes this week and through it all the EA is in profit. I can't wait to see what next week brings when I start a fresh week and a new demo.
