Hi, Nubchai:
so you use Invisible's scooby.mq4 based on his earliest .set with MPTM? or you come up with your own setting?
my Invisible doesn't trade today,
thanks.

The Original BOJ bot and Invisible's bot are both scary good

Thanks to Mr. Invisible for this heads-up.
You know, I am a sick person, I cannot wait to see some loss of this EA
Only when we see loss can we improve accordingly, and more important, to learn about potential risk.

I have some trades running right now. Almost exactly 20% profit in 1 week.
Let's see what the market mayhem tomorrow can do to mess that up

The first thing I will do is pepper the code with this construct:
to force the robot to wait until the blasted criminal has got out of bed, or the blasted platform has stopped pissing about, or the blasted internet connection has reinstated itself. I have started doing this in my latest bots.Inserted Codewhile (!IsTradeAllowed() ) { }//while (!IsTradeAllowed() )
Any other ideas also welcome.

Hi Charvo,
I have one demo with Invisible's scooby mod running without mptm. I'm just letting the EA control the trades.
Then I had a second smaller demo with the same EA but I was using mptm with Invisible's set file. Tonight I took mptm off to see how a smaller demo would do with only the EA controlling trades.
Right now both demos have open trades in the negative. We'll see how the evening goes

I have added more error trapping code to Original 2.4 - lots of if (IsTradeAllowed() ) {do some order sending stuff}
Added this to the SendTrade function:
The robot tries to send a trade 30 times before giving up. Within the trade sending function, there are now 10,000 iterations around the pause loop. If this doesn't solve the occasional platform/criminal/God disallowing trade problems, it is hard to see what will.
doc, I found two more Sleep(5000) that should have been 500. Thanks for spotting it in the first place.

Inserted Code
//Deal with disallowed trading

stoprun++;
