Can we all just stop flooding about how much pips who made or lost???

We all know that, as settings are not secret. It's hard to keep attention to

more important things.

Cause this thread is dedicated to possibly improve EA and fix

any errors if problems occur..???

OK, now back to biz.. Geo thanks again, did you read my post about

Tokyo 1 Trade settings option? I run backtests few times and Trailing Stop Loss

function doesn't work with 1 order version.. Could you please run small...
Now you haven't been reading my posts!

I have already said that there is a problem with TSL on TOKYO 1 order and
I have asked piptician to investigate!

Unbelievable, looks like some great trades were taken last night, and guess what....... no connection for me

Thoughts today are turning to VPS!

Any advice Geoff

instead of opening all orders in the same price,
when opening the first to market two orders limits with a distance x (optimize) maintaining the same initial StopLoss
bearing in mind that in rare cases, the price goes directly to TP.
I think that in this way can be minimized when there is a loss, and maximize profits when they occur,
Regards
Good Idea..

I have been reading this post for several days and I am impressed. First of all thank you Geoff to share this EA.

I attached the EA v9 on Forex.com live account, but tonight did not trade. Are .set files necessary or EA can run without them?

had a nightmare with FXDD last night
They now require you to login and have a password to get history reports that are only avaliable on live accounts,which I have. no more demo

I couldn't login so I e-mailed support about it and said I can't login to the reports . So what do they do . . . they reset my main password....... I get up this AM and I couldn't access my account and I had 2 posstions open. Thank God they were possitive...

But I lost almost $50 trying to close them. I saw an e-mail in my spam from FXDD that said they reset my password, it was 4 hours after I asked them about the report issue and made no referecne about resetting my main password.
THANKS FXDD
I have an application into Alpari now!

if i understand correct, this is about pending orders? i think about it for a very long time already, and yesterday did a first test - when the entry point was reached, i placed BUY STOP orders and waited. it was triggered at 3:03 GMT and straightly got in profit. in this particular case would not be a big difference, but if we will get in trade like on March 23rd, it would really do, coz the huge sl would never hit!

What you mean by "CamvcvooV2a" I believe it's the same thing

as Tokyo with 3 orders, and it doesn't even reach 50 pips because

TSL took it out, and I have at least 3 pips lower spread than Forex.com

Simply there was no 80 pips.. After about 50 pips ( i get TSL even without hitting second target) rise there was 40 pips fall back

What are you bragging about? Show me your chart!

Forexvps.com charge $35 a month for a "small" vps, that is the cheapest I have found!

Not BUY STOP, but Limited BUY instead because you should set them

BELOW the entry.. Buy Stop placing when you want them to be

set above current price.. So you set them above Entry is that what you

are saying?

We didn't supply .set files for v9 and the EA does not need them, they are
just used to save your own settings once you have everything set up!

Hi Skyzer,

I had the same journal error as your chart shows, what does that mean?

Although all 3 trades ended in profit, 2 winners, one stopped out

I have a VPS. 2 terminals - both Alpari UK - 1 trades, 1 doesn't. IMO it may be a broker connection issue if you're on Alpari UK. They're awful on demo these days.
Do not focus on making money; focus on protecting what you have.

OK, you got it correctly,
but I'll give you an example:
suppose that the first order is Buy: a 1.4500
Ok, then we set 2 Buy Limit orders, with a distance of 25 pips
1ª.- 1.4475
2ª.- 1.4450
The result in case of loss or gain is:
Stoploss loss = -75 $
TakeProfit = +75 $

I believe that optimizing these settings, you can reduce the DD, and increase the benefit ..
