So I am guessing that we need to run 4 versions of the TM to manage the sets?

Eddie
That it correct - one for each magic number.

hhhmmm first trade of the day seemed ok......

went from +0.90 to +1.19 then dropped back to +0.22 showing current DD - £6.69....

Running the newest version so it would have touched 80, then opened when i retraced to 75, right?

Yep.

One of the tweaks I might add is the ability to make the gap between the trigger level and the trade entry level varied. We shall see.

Just now, I am coding V4, with GPB as a trigger.

That sound like a good idea to have a user defined field.

Is it also going to be possible to add a second layer to allow for the "10 Rule" to be used as well?

For instance.......

Weak, allow 80 mark, then retrace to (user defined - current 75), then open when "10 Rule" is (user defined - maybe 10?)

I am going to see the profit of "Steve Law" fall on this trade and it has started going the right way......

Hey Jeff, why do you have the Indicators in the EA folder ??
They should be in the Indicators folder.

Hi Matrix,
Thanks for reponding, but does that matter? Even when removed, the EA still does not load!
Anyway, it is not a big deal for tha time being, I focussing on other issues, will come to that some other time, or simply I can use the older version, right?

By older version do you mean v1.2 and not v1.2a? They function the exact same. What build is your MT4 platform? the EA seemed to crash my build 218 at work. I'm updating to build 220 right now.

EDIT: working better now with build 220 at work. v1.2 is probably compiled with a different build of MT4

Jeff,

Do you have them in your indicators folder and removed from the Experts/EA section?

Did you then restart?

Yes it matters as it is call them from the file path!

Yes Matrix, v1.2 is ok.

Eddie, indicators are already removed from experts.

Hi Matrixebiz

The first section is for total account Profit or Loss in dollar amounts.
So if all your open orders add up to a Profit or Loss of what ever you put like $10 or -$10 then all orders will be closed.

The Second section is for individual orders SL or TP in pips.

I don't think there is any need Eddie. Apart from other considerations, I can't remember the last time I saw a gap of 10. I think this would merely kill trading stone dead.
