Perhaps a screen shot of my charts will show what I mean about the writing on the screen being a bit too much!

Perhaps, when you make enough profit, you can but 3 more

flat screens, they are cheap these days..

Thanks Sky. First, does it matter if numbers are the same. They are different pairs and show in the history which pairs are trading. I would certainly change numbers if live to avoid broker interference!!
It does not seem to matter as trades are occuring without problem.

no
i mean i can but in most cases it will work against you when market moves very quick, ea can miss a level and you will be in loss instead of profit. i got in this situation very often with Geoff's original ea

Sasha, exactly.. 1st Market order will insure we take a position

and in case of pair move straight up, give as a profit..

and second and third order should be placed on decided

Variable spread, let's say for example second trade 20 pips below

and third 40 pips below first order, STOP LOSS and TAKE PROFIT,

Calculating from MARKET ORDER #1. So, basically

If...
i will do that
just curious how to identify this option in pop up menu

Does the EA use the text on the screen to effectively trade? If not, then it could be switched off anytime.
Please don't make a meal of this - it isn't so important but thanks for your interest.

I had to read the thread twice to really get what is going on with the ea. Highly recommended to read the thread. The discussion posted in open forum is invaluable.
Thanks to you, Sashasan, and all the others who are digging in with shirt sleeves rolled up.
A quick answer, if I may, it's open turf on what pairs, GBPUSD is favored.
5min fractals and 15 min fractals have been designed as entry signals for a move on the 1h.

i have no idea
just approximate distance between price and pending order place

also it depends what king of trailing you want to use - if slow, so if ok and can be greater, if fast, 10-20 good enough

also guys, is this have a sense - to limit a number of trades per 1 h candle?
i mean even if a signal is given, set opened and closed fast right away, after opened again during same hour candle, do not open it (vause have a limitation for let say 1 set of orders during 1 h candle)?

Hi Sashasan,
Boy, you've been busy.
This is great. I've been pulling teeth with another project. Glad to see the fruits of your labor are being born.
Re: limit to trades per candle.
Wouldn't using the pending order function protect against getting in again after a move had played out?

Hi Lawgirl. I am using Geoff's Ea and The manual EA coded by Sasha. The manual EA I put on automatic last night and it took 2 sets of trades all with my TP being met. +22 +28. Most of the time I trade in the manual mode but last night I decided to go auto.
Geoff's EA does not trade much for me as I am using IBFX but always a winner.
Hi GB,

What settings are you currently using? I have been tresting a few different settings because I am a little concerned that the 140 pip SL is far too excessive. My preference at the moment is to take 3 trades manually with the TP's set at 22, 28, 35 with the SL set at 80 and Trailing stops for trades 2 and 3 at 15 and 20.
