Hi

On my Alpari UK demo, trade triggered at 1.4525.

Both target 1 and 2 achieved.

If I had those smilies with different emotion, I would be giving Geoff a few of the ones clapping, great job so far mate.

Will keep forward testing before going live.

Cheers

Calstock, I left the settings at default (22/50/80). I'm now at profits 1 and 2 $41 and $41. TP 1 didn't close. Do you think I should close TP1 manually or leave it alone? If I close TP1, will that interfere with TP2 and TP3?
Hi Mary

One thing I should have mentioned before, once a trade is in progress do not try to adjust the settings, the EA will lose control of the existing trades!

Hi geo ! All works now very good - but we have - it seems to me - mainly 2 probs - crashing some times and very different behaviour of brokers concerning trade opening ?

I'm sure the EA does not crash, it is not written by Microsoft!

Brokers data feeds are a problem and I am looking at alternative ways to trigger the trade instead of fractals.

Come on guys, I've only got one pair of hands!

Hello, I'd like test your EA on real account. But I have a problem with possitions open. My broker has some time between another open. I think it about 3-5 sec between next trade. When trade is open I have only one possitions. Where can I add the delay in the code to open all trades.

Thanks

There was a problem with the third order filling up the journal with modify order entries, this new version fixes that problem!

If you just want to run the EA, upload the .ex4 file to your computer and paste it into your experts folder then re-start MT4:
camvcvooV3.ex4

12 month strategy report canvcvooV3.zip is attached.

The files are also updated in post #1.

Geoff,
Since I removed the reconnect EA I have had no problems with Alpari UK crashing or stalling in any way.
Thank you.

You will need to add a delay between each order:

1st order}//end while

Sleep(3000); // add this between each order

retries =10;
while(retries > 0)
second order.........

An alternative, which is probably easier, is to increase the existing Sleep() value in the Retry loop! Why didn't I spot that before!

Great!

My Alpari demo accounts usually disconnect 2 or 3 times a day but I have never noticed the live accounts do this!

Hello,

my experience with EA's are, that they are working better with the feed of demo accounts regarding order execution. Therefore I'm using a demo account as ''signal giver''. A master-slave-system hands over the trades to what account ever (IBFX, FXPro, etc). I'm on the track with an Alpari RU-demo account, because of the very solid feed. Earlier I was using Apari UK but the demo feed has a lot of interruptions per day and is unusable.

If somebody need help to set up a master-slave-system, send a pm!

Geoff, thanks a lot for the great observation, great idea, work and help.

All the best, Steve
