Buy limit is trailing up to the

ReverseMove point ( I have it set to 80) if

FastTrailing=true. If pair moves up 80 pips and Buy Limit not

getting triggered, then Pending orders will be canceled.

Besides if you want Buy Limit to be hit earlier

Decrease

Yes, it is unless another auto trade comes in. About 10-15 minutes before original Tuesday long trade hit TPs, an auto trade long on GU was triggered so both hit my +22,+24,+26 targets within minutes of each other. Fun! Of course, had to wait 3 days for first ..still

EJ, GU, and EU just triggered long..so I'm back on the roller coaster again, will probably be in these trades over the weekend. Is anyone else auto trading these pairs?

SKY. Trying 4.5 with buy limit orders. Strange to see the price above the entry point and not be able to cash in the pips. Don't know if I like this. Will wait and see.

I would like to see trading times added to the EA, don't really want the weekend carry.

Cheers and Happy Weekend


*Only had one loss and this was when I shortened the stop loss. Very promising EA, will consider a live account with a few more parameters added.

Hi

Would you be so kind as to share your Settings, the pairs your trading, and the time frame.

I'm having mixed results I think I'm probably trading too many pairs with the wrong settings.

Thanks in advance for your help!!!

Gerry.. We only testing for now ok?? New version will trigger

1 order right on the spot (Market) and 2 others will be placed

at limit 20/40 pips below for an example.. So? If pair never goes down

you still be cashing at least 1 order, and if it does goes down, you'll be

able to average your trade and get better Entry price, compare to Original Geo Tokyo,

where all orders just placed at Market..

Thanks again for the updated ea , had some nice wins today, just like lawgirl posted, had a gu trade open from earier this week that with another made a double win, 2 wins on eur usd, and 1 - win on usd chf.and 1- win on gbp jpy Still not sure of all the options but learning. My latest version of the ea resets itself to defalt settings after a win/ loss. is it suppose to do that?

Sasha, been trying it on fxcm vps and found stop/limit orders all work well. Thanks. But as I said before, Delete Pending script is needed for apparent reason and Place Stop/Limit scripts are needed for entering trades manually. Anyway, take your time, as the progress of improving/adding new functions is already amazingly fast.

One more thing worth mentioning - stop and limit orders should be able to work together simultaneously without any conflicts by putting the EA on 2 separate/different charts with different Magic No. as per Sky's suggestion, once the scripts are in place. Good job, Sasha.

What about using one broker for the strategy? Getting on the same page so to speak. Just wondering. Same settings, currency pairs, after usual testing.
