mirage_prof,
Thanks for the info. Let me clarify a few other things for myself.
Right now on my demo I have 7 open trades to test this EA. In the upper left of the window it says 7 open trades. They happen to be across several pairs. Some are even pending orders. Now I only have the EA put in the EU window and not in any other window.
1. Does the EA then run on all pairs regardless if the EA is open in that window?
2. If it does execute on all pairs regardless of which window it is open in, I am guessing you cannot have different settings for different pairs? I would prefer not to have a trailing stop on certain pairs from other trading methods I use.
3. I am still confused at the profit target setting on the EA. You enter a number in that window on the EA properties settings. In the trading window it comes up with a dollar amount. Now, as I said, I have 7 trades that the EA says are open. In reality there are 2 open and 5 pending. Is that profit target setting for each individual trade or is that a total that I am looking to take from all the trades?
4. I also notice that if I put a stop loss in manually on the MT4 platform that the EA gets rid of that each time I enter it. It takes a few seconds but then it shows zereo stop loss for my number. That makes me nervous.
5. The same is true for a take profit that I set. The number just disappears.
I am sure I will have more questions. Thanks for the help. I am trying to get it help me out when I am gone for many hours at work etc.
