DislikedAttached a pic of one of the charts that indicates that the EA is trading - well outside the trading period. I have Expert Advisors switched off to stop it trading. Thought it might help. As soon as I switch the Expert Advisor tab on, it sends pending orders and in one case, opened trades. I have 8 charts operating and 2 of them are doing this. The other 6 charts are saying 'Not trading'.
Strange!!??Ignored
int now = TimeHour(TimeLocal())*100 + TimeMinute(TimeLocal());

DislikedOne of the very reason I stopped posting my comments was MM and I see this coming over and over again. This probably means that indeed, this is a valuable point to discuss. So after following the thread (thx for the breakout Mer), here is what I meant to share earlier on:
First of all, I have nothing against Martingale ... actually I like Martingale ... but martingale means you have 2 random variable, same distribution, same expectation .... what the hell does this means ..... typically, that the behavior or losing or winning is similar. Well .......Ignored
DislikedLook, please nobody take offense at this but I'm tired of saying that I choose to use the martingale because I have the capital to to so. If you don't like to use martingale or like using my specific multipliers, don't use them! I said this strategy is just a base, so build it to suit your trading and your money management. I include both ways in my charts to show the good and the bad of utilizing the martingale to be fair to those who are interested in applying it....Ignored
DislikedQuestion for Mer and the community:
the last change to the script (V3.1) attempts to "fix" the "error 130: invalid stops" issue by sending a LIMIT order instead of a STOP order when price does not allow for a STOP.
This is so we still have our 2 pending orders, wherever is price when you fire the script.
I was about to include that change in the EA too...
However, having followed the behaviour of my beta release of the EA with this change on friday, i'm not so sure that this is the way to go...
LIMIT order will fire as soon as price RETRACES...Ignored
Dislikedhi everybody! why don't we add a function to decide the lot size as a % of the accountbalance?
i'm using this kind of mm in my trading... let's say that the box size suggest a maximum loss of say 45 pips, we could code a function that says: ok if u want to loose max say 1% of your account u should use xx lots...
clear?
this is actually the way i trade: i decide my sl position, and the % i'd be ready to risk, then i calculate the right lot size...
it should be quite easy in our case too as we know, day by day, the maximum loss in pips.
martinguale...Ignored
