DislikedHi Steve,
Firstly many thanks to you and all the great minds that have contributed thus far with this project.
a quick question on the % closure, if i leave this as the 5% default and my trades get closed at the 5%, when will it reset itself? with the next new fib drawn or the next day (midnight)...
again many thanks

Here is another include file I use that helps manage 4 and 5-digit conversions, as well as order placement checks.
Make a call to calcDigits() inside your init().
The attached mqh file contains info on how to use the variables that the above call sets up.

DislikedHi All,
First off, many thanks to Mr. Hopwood for these amazing EAs! And thanks as well to all of you who have contributed to their evolution (especially grandehombre!).
I've been looking at the code and thinking about how trading hours are handled...
The current way the trading hour limits are implemented results in no fib and no TP or SL updates occuring outside of the specified trading hours. It seems to me that the EA should continue to update the fibs, TPs an SLs as long as there are any open trades, and just refrain from openning new...Ignored

<wish_list>
As the smallest lot size I can trade in my account is 0.1 lots, I would sleep much better if there were a global limit on the number of trades the EA would open accross all pairs, as well as a limit on the number of open trades on any single pair...

The basic bot works fine; we are just looking at the cosmetics for now.

DislikedThis is something I considered during the Simone's inception. I decided it was unnecessary to update fibs during off-trading hours because the whole point is to trade pairs during their main trading hours.
Not necessary. The breech fib move minimum code renders this irrelevant unless you are trading lot sizes that are too high.
Also, if the market movement continues then you want extra trades being taken. Existing trades have their stops move to breakeven +++ so you cannot possibly lose.

DislikedAh... I see. I wasn't considering that all but the latest trade on a pair have their stops moved to breakeven or better... So real maximum lot exposure is limited to Lot x number of pairs used. Thanks!

DislikedExactly the sort of think I had in mind. Fantastic.
Luke and KingHigh, I hope you don't think I am engaged in some sort of 'bidding war' here. Thing is, I find programming staggeringly difficult. What I have done 1,000,000 times before is only easy because I have done it 1,000,000 times before. The previous 999,999 times were bloody hard. Learning new techniques is really difficult. I am a pianist, not a computer programer.
