The profit of the EA run up and down from time to time, maybe the EA itself could start a protect profit on Thursdays US session, if a certain amount of profit is reached it will lock it. Once the profit drop below that amount, it will close all trade and never open any trades until we restart the platform. In another words, Thursdays US session is the starting point to look for an exit with profit. Once everything is closed, stop trading.
Yes, i have been thinking about this for awhile, the difficulty is, you usually have one positive and one negative trade. But i will give it some further thought.

Have u seen T101 thread before ? He has an EA which do something like a trailing profit. For example, the profit reach +$200, the EA will lock $100, if profit fall below $100 for more than 5 mins , it will close all trades. The profit will be trail maybe by every $50 from $200 onwards, so when it reach $250, it will lock $150 and so on. The EA doesn't care about how many open trades, it only look at the overall profit.

I think your EA could lock profit based on % of account. If overall profit reach 10% of account, it will lock 5% of account or something like that.

Ok here is the thread to T101 protect account EA.

it seems to be the case so far. The account u use for the EA must be exclusive to the EA.

my result so far. I think it would be perfect if

- EA can be traded with other EA/trades
- Allow to trade with broker that has currency suffix
- Some sort of profit protection
- Allow to adjust margin %

Also, are you planning on adding other pairs please? A profitable example is here.

And how much will your service cost when, or if, forward testing results are satisfactory please?

Thanks in anticipation Tokyo.

tokyomaster , the account protection EA link i provided earlier protect the whole account profit. Since you are making this EA to trade with other EA/trades , the account protect hopefully should look at the trades open by the EA and not the whole account open trade.

tokyomaster , what is the minimum money balance and minimum margin % we can use ?

It seems that when the balance is low and margin is low both EURUSD and USDCHF open the same amount of lot.

"Why Oh Why" problem --> I discover that when only one of the first 2 position manage to open , it will close the current open position and retry to open again. It will keep on doing closing and reopening until 2 currency pair is open at the same time. "Why Oh Why" experience opening and closing position at the same time is due to only 1 position is open and the other lag behind by split second

Yes, this is an issue with small accounts. Minimum would be 500 using 10% i think but i will look into it.
