If I take profit early or stop the EA in a losing trade, will it affect the way the EA trades in the future?. Does the EA need to complete a trade from start to finish, or can I interfere without any problems?.

jcf,
Yes, you can interfere manually (close trades) with EA triggered trades. But, let the EA open trades. Do not manually open trades.

I have 3 trades so far with the latest version of 1h.
1 sell usdjpy with profit $1.03 , 2 buy usdcad, one with profit of $48.87, the other profit of $0.86. All trades with 0.1 lot size, and default settings.
I wonder why two of the trades has less than $2 TP.
Bernard, is it possible to get explanation of the parameters and how they affect the EA?
Thanks.
ps: can anybody teach me how to post the result from MT4? thanks.

This question has been asked a few times and replied to previously on a number of occasions.
The EA has 3 hours (default) ProfitCutOffTime to trigger Trailing Stop (Min SL + Spread) and enter into safety. If it cannot do that, after the expiry of ProfitCutOffTime, the EA attempts to close the trade in profit at the first opportunity. As long as profit is greater than 0, that position will be closed.
Once Trailing Stop is triggered, restriction imposed by ProfitCutOffTime no longer apply as the trade is in profit.
Min SL = Minimum Stop Loss allowed by broker. This is different for different brokers.
InitialStopBuffer = A buffer space above/below Min SL + Spread. TS is triggered when price reached or exceeds Min SL + Spread + InitialStopBuffer.
PivotBuffer = A buffer space surrounding Pivot/Support/Resistance Levels. Actual space surrounding Pivot/S/R is Spread + PivotBuffer.
The rest of the parameters are self explanatory or have been explained before. Just refer to past postings.
To post results,
1. Right click any place at Account History.
2. Choose "save as report'' and save in html format.
3. Use Word application to open the previously saved file.
4. Save as a word document file.
Now it is in doc format, and ready to be posted.

i think it's working becoz i saw this message

Is it possible to remove the message ? It's showing every second [each pair showing the message] and taking the computer resource. It will compound to thousands of such message in a day.

The messages are important to me to track EA's logic.
The messages are never kept permanently, so no resource space is taken up.
