Hi 137,
Here I have removed the Magneto's TP for you. It should work
By the way, my Magneto test in Alpari gone weird. It just delete my buystop. When I checked the comment, well ... alpari doesn't allow hedge !!!
thank you

that's terrible about Alpari! what are you gonna do? can you recode the strategy to close the order as the new direction is taken?

Do we close the trades manually once we see profit or does the EA closes them by itself?

Thanks

There is nothing we can do if the broker does not allow hedging. If we change the EA to open new order at the time of Stop Loss closing, then it won't be guaranteed that new order opening will be at the exact level that it should

Silver,
the 3PairsHedge will close all trades once the target has reached. Otherwise, you can close all trades automatically.
This function is added to the new EA (uploaded). There will be a lable "CLOSE ALL". By selecting it then delete it, the EA will close all trades automatically.

1,3,6,12,24,48,96 are lots multiplication for carry trading system.

yeah that's what i figured but when i put the Magneto EA on USDJPY it opened 0.1 lots, 0.3 lots, then 1.2 lots. so multiplier was 1, 3, 4 rather than 1, 3, 2. any ideas why it would do this?

Hum??? Thats weird.
I put this im my code for lot calculation:
lotsi = BaseLot * lotc[0];

So, the multiplication should be based on that list. I am wondering why in you USDJPY opened such trades. It should open 0.1, 0.3 then 0.6. Maybe the 0.6 lot trade fail to open for some reason.
Cheers

Hi All,
I just added an EA called BlueWhale. It is a dynamic trading system. Using MMA, TrendLines and Range to open and close trades.
This EA is still not perfect but I am working on it. Interesting!

can you run this on differant pairs at the same time, does it need a magic number, could you add one

thank you for all your time and sharing all these EA

The magneto has started this today.
The picture, how it should be once the EA run. 2 pendings order will be opened. Then the EA will manage and automate the next pending orders opening until the process done

could you change the magneto for when a trade goes against you
that it hedges to break even and close all trades at break even.

Now if i understand it hedge to a profit.

I think its better or safer to hedge to break even and than just restart
a a differant location.

Would that be just simply change the lot size in the code ?
not sure if i really understand the math
now 1,3,6,12,24,48,96 To 1,2,4,8,16,32,64 ?

Thank you for your time and sharing your EA's

Hi Todd,
The EA already has Break Even function. Here is the parameters:
BEclose = true;
BEprofit = 0;

Just change the BEclose to true. Then it will watch for break even profit.

hi fosgate r. thanks for all the EAs!

i have been using Magneto with some success but i'm concernced about something.

let's say the expert opens up a third trade in the sequence and it is a buy. the problem is that the EA will close the open sell order when the BID touches the TP level of the buy orders and not when the buy orders have been closed, because the buy orders can only be closed once the ASK hits the TP level of the buy orders.

so, if i am correct with my observation could you program Magneto to close opposing orders only after profit orders have been closed?

again, many thanks, just trying to help improve what i can

btw i think the trick with this EA is to sometimes just take a loss. although when to do this is difficult to determine...
