Geoff, do you get trailing stops problem on Alpari? I put v13 #2 on live last night but it seems no error messages with +ve pips.

Piptician, should I stop trading and wait for the greatest v14? I am little bit worried about...
Hi Gary,

I use Alpari demo and I was oblivious to these trailing stop issues until people started using it with other brokers. If you are using Alpari you should be OK if you have been using Tokyo for a while and not seen any "order modify too soon errors" i.e. broken trailing stops.

At the end of the day it's your call, if you are using it live then maybe wait for Tokyo14 and run it in demo until you are happy it looks OK for you. Also wait and see what others find when they use it too.

Regards,
Piptician

Piptician, thanks for your reply! Last night, I got "order modify too soon errors" only on v12 #3 on Alpari demo, but not v13 #2 on live. Will keep v13 live as it seems working perfectly!

Piptician,
I was the first one to have a problem with the TSL and then the same day someone else as well reported in with it. Geoff is the one who explained what had happened. I am on Alpari UK. And there were no errors reported. The stop loss just didn't kick in. I have noticed that it happens on #1 and #3. I don't recall anyone reporting a problem on #2. This started on 11.
We know you have done a lot of work on this and we are all extremely thankful. I will demo it from now on to see how it does. It's a beautiful machine. Thank you. For me it will have to be demo because I am not in a position to sit with it while it trades. We all want to do whatever we can to help.
Thank you again.

I was on Alpari UK live when the loss came.

Looks like LONG coming up and I don't see no LONG development

in Cable PA, it's more likely flat or down..

Cut loss on what??? Nothing opened yet.

"Heading down?" 10-15 pips?

Hi, yeah I don't know about that.. I mean, if long coming up, then

I'd wait of course, but not sure, if EA will open additional Trades

or not in that case? We never kept trades over 24 hours before..

P.S

I got message "NO Trades Today" EMA 10 pointed down and 197 UP.

You have to make that decision for yourself. Trend is down on H1, H4, and daily charts, but up on weekly. Last night's Camv3 trade has now turned into a longer term trade for me. For longer term trades, I never like to trade against the weekly trend which I have found is generally set, but not always, by Tuesday. I'm riding it out, but have "changed my mindset" about this particular trade to that of a swing trader. Just my 2 pips worth.

Mikok,

Demo or live?

If Demo, then we're Way above the stop (I have 8 Demo trades open) & I would let it ride.

I've seen this trade go Way south & come back for profits.

If live, then hopefully you've set Money Mgmt or Order Lots that you can live with if it hits the stops.

I know this has come up before, but I couldn't find the discussion -

What will the EA do if it gets a trade signal & it still has trades open?

Also, Piptician, if the EA will place a second set of trades, will it calculate the Order Lots (using MM) based on account Equity or Free Margin?

I'm hoping it looks at Free Margin so as not to over-leverage the account.

This situation might not come up very often, but with a 140 Pt. stop, I can see it happening enough that we need to be prepared, if we're not already

Thanks!!

Franko

Three thumbs down on the chart with V13, on Alpari UK Demo. Although last night's trades still open. I'll keep them going and see where they get to and how the EA behaves.

Still have V12 on live. Will change after a few days of testing V13 on demo.

thanks for your comment.
iam trade for live and at the moment i have stopped the EA to prevent it open the trade in opposite position whereby will make the situation more worst.come to the worst,then i will stop the trade manually.by the way, i admit it is the best EA i ever used before.I still have 100 % confidence on it.

losing trade, hopefully your winning now.
Did you ajust your stop loss to less then 140 and trailing stops.

Quoting losingtrades
which is why the EA gives you options to adjust the t/p levels.

I will use smaller t/p levels and higher lots as time goes by...I think this EA will work perfectly for this strategy...just me talking...not speaking for everyone.

I know the default t/p levels were designed by geoff after exhausting efforts and research so I don't wish to make light of that...just merely stating my style of trading

Well said Franko - thank you You took the words right out of my mouth

Tokyo14 is almost ready and I believe will sort out the stop loss modification issue. However, there are so many different brokers, settings and other variables such as server load and internet load that make it impossible to test all possibilities without the help of everyone on this thread.

The aim here is to get everyone onto Tokyo14 so that we can all work as one towards future versions of Tokyo. I have lost count of how many different versions people are...
Roger that pip. Just let us know what type of info we should feed back to help make it better.
Btw, I am still long from last night amazingly. missed tp by .00004 pip and it still going..........Kinda curious now
