My broker is Alpari UK so they don't have that many pairs to trade, is there an alternative possible at all?
Give me a day or two and i will look into the Alpari platform and will find your pairs for now hang around and learn and read.

I guess there is a list contains 11 pairs, but anything less than that won't be able to reflect the situation as good as the current list.
It should be even number and the currencies should cancelled each other out. Meaning they should be balance.

We have already 2 reported crashes on the profitcalc_R3 EA. I dont know much about MT4 operation but 2 instances should be look into by some who are really familiar with the MT4 and help them please. The EA is a simple EA not even 50 lines of codes and just a single loop that ends to crash a system, something is not right in the system.

Leomeister,
if your pairs look like EURUSDm, GBPUSDm, etcthen you should set Symbol_suffix property to m.
Do you have all required pairs on your platform?

No errors here (ODL & IBFX).

Orest, For T101_v1.6.mq4 I'm getting a 'zero divide' error in the experts tab and nothing is displaying in the indicator window. Running this demo on FXDD.

This is because you probably compiled your EA under build 218. Any earliear build usages would give users platform crush.

They either should upgrade their platforms or you need to re-compile the EA under earlie versions of MT.

Hi Guys,

I opened my demo trading just One hour after the market opening time, as per my ProfitCac and T101's instruction, I went short (All 14 pairs). I monitored my demo for 2 hours.

Just got back from work and found out My trade automatically closed with profit of 1,367 (I set my profit target to 100 per pair)

Thank you T101 for your system

I am reaching the $1000.00 profit level now on both platforms. Broker must be pretty pissed today. Thats the market, that will even SHoRT more once the Congress vote yes on the 700B thingy, i did mentioned this last night, reason why we trade early and jump aftert the ProfitCalc give the Strong SHORT signal, isnt it.

Orest,
I'm using an FXDD demo account which has all 14 pairs. FXDD doesn't add the 'm' like IBFx so don't think thats the problem.

I had previously used the Hedge Sell to open Sell on all currencies following Julius' recomendation and a ProfitCalc signal. Just noticed that CADJPY and CHFJPY hadn't been included for some reason. So I manually added SELLS on those two. Not sure if that glitch is related to the non-performance of the 101 expert? Are there other indicators required in the folders for your expert to function?

Better withdraw some of the money out (Today's earning ?) . You never know what they will do if they are pissed

Imagine 10 person (believe there will be more and growing each day) who is using your method to trade also using the same broker... Your broker might go broke. They might lost about $10,000 or more per week (combine effort of everyone using the same broker) thnx to your method Any idea how the broker pays out our profit ? Using other people lost or their own money ? Or unknown ?

Believe me, bucket shops are pretty pissed right now, if only they can close their trade like us theyll do it. This whole week perhaps they will be in financial crisis like the wall street. Bet they are hoping the Congress will not sign that bill. Then theyll have the last laugh. But we can close our trade then. LOL... They should be beaten once in a while..right...

Right now i think is that more trader are on the side of fundamental trend (SHORT) they are a few who believes that it will not be signed by congress on the LONG side but my guess majority is on our side (SHORT) So it will be their money first and the balance the bucket shop money thats the reason they are pissed right now. If the market is ranging BS has a field day, trending traders have the field day. i guess.

This will be handy for when currency values change in time, we will all need to be doing this, maybe every 6 months or whatever, ourselves.

Ok I reported the first instance of the latest profitcalc_v3 crashing and now djmanu seems to have a similar problem. Maybe you are using vista as well and trying to run in XP compatability mode like me. Anyway, for vista I managed to fix mine.

All scripts are made for MT4 build 218 as trader101 hinted earlier.

To check your version inside MT4 press: 'alt-H', and then press 'A'

Simply - anybody using FxPro, the download from their website is MT4 build 217! We obviously need to allow the update to build 218. This is achieved from the liveupdate mechanism that should run automatically. If running MT4 on vista with limited authorties under a standard user account despite accepting the liveupdate on startup it will not function.

Close MT4 down. Right click on the MT4 icon and "run as administrator". Make sure you have the login details for the account as running in admin mode it will not remember them the first time. Once logged in again (your IA will continue running as before) liveupdate will trigger and once accepeted, downloaded, installed and restarted - MT4 will run profitcalc_v3 and 2protectaccount (I hope ) .

Regards
Steve
