Simple 3 order GBPUSD EA

I'm keeping live v5b, v7 and added the 3 order EA on Alpari UK. Now, I hope only my account wont be blasted this night with all this kids playing together.

So far I had only one loser with v6, let's hope it will keep going well. Though, I realise this strategy may have an end somehow when the markets will change again.
It's doubtful if v7 and the 3 order EA's will trade tonight, the 197 SMA is pointing down and the 10 SMA is pointing up, neither looks like it will have enough time to reverse so that will mean no trade!

True. Though, I think v5 might open some trade tonight.

The UK has a new right wing prime minister, Cameron has been confirmed so cable should start to recover, maybe.

Should there be a smiley face in upper right instead of X?
Left all at default except gmt +3 and lot size.

Yes. To enable it, you should see a button called Expert Advisor on the menu bar at the top of your trading platform. Click to make it green. Then you should see the smiling face. Hope it helps.

It's hard to see where you have gone wrong. Maybe you can post your settings of the EA, then we can go from there. Alternatively, before you post, check for possible errors under the tab of Expert or Journal at the bottom of your trading terminal.

Is there a point of keeping the EA on? Since I seen others talk about that V7 wont probably trade tonight? When do we turn the EA off?

Make sure:

Money Management = False
Manual Lot Size= True
Lot Size = Minimum required by your broker

If the above don't work, i am clueless.

Can anyone other than the thread starter vouch for this system? Meaning, is it consistent and profitable?

There is a small bug in the closing code of Order 3. The EA closes 3 also once the takeprofit2 is reached. It may need to be as follows (modification highlighted in bold).

for (int l = 0; l < OrdersTotal(); l++) {
OrderSelect(l, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES);
if (OrderType() == OP_BUY && (OrderMagicNumber() == iMagicNumber3)) {
if (Bid < (OrderOpenPrice()-StopLoss*Poin)
|| Bid > (OrderOpenPrice()+TakeProfit3*Poin)) {
RefreshRates();
OrderClose(OrderTicket(), OrderLots(), Bid, 3, Green);
}
}
if (OrderType() == OP_SELL && (OrderMagicNumber() == iMagicNumber3)) {
if (Ask > (OrderOpenPrice()+StopLoss*Poin)
|| Ask < (OrderOpenPrice()-TakeProfit3*Poin)) {
RefreshRates();
OrderClose(OrderTicket(), OrderLots(), Ask, 3, Yellow);
}
}
}//end for
