For those who still use v9 I have added the "timed exit" to this and re-named
it "OverNight_EAv9a" so it will not be confused with any previous EA's.
The default settings have been optimised using an Alpari UK demo account.
The graph shows 12 months back-test to date.
for V17 and great thanks for not forget about all previous V-mq4

Yes, the defaults are as before except for the timed exit and I have optimised
them to 7 hours and 8 pips.
After 7 hours from the time when the order is opened if there is more than
8 pips profit the EA will close all the open orders and gets rid of most, but
not all, of the "marathon" trades!
The overall profitability is reduced but the reduction in the losing trades
more than compensates for this!
.+1 backtest result are great, we'll see how it goes in live..
Thanks Geo..
P.S.
I hate Forex
Previously there was no loses either, backtesting is backtesting,
live trading is different.. Strange to see Dollar bulls start attacking,
long before FOMC.. Hold your horses, Uncle Ben will cut rates below zero.
Interesting..
Hello. I am from Russia. I take your EA and it's amazing. I put the 17 version and in the tester 2010/07/16 EA has stop loss. How do I fix it? Here are my settings. DC Alpari. Sorry for the bad english, wrote a message through a translator.
Hey Geoff, I backtested the V17 from the beginning of August 2010 until today ( just to see if there is any 'gross' errors).
I use the 1 set order with TP=24 and SL=90 without any trailing.
minHrs=7
minPips=8
On Aug 5th, a trade opens and it closes with TP=24 about 13 hrs after trade is opened. With the V17, I thought that it should have closed earlier that is after 7hrs with a profit of 8pips.
Please see attached chart.
Am I right in my assumption?
Thanks.

After 7 hours if the profit is above 8 pips it should close the orders at whatever
price it has reached at that time.
The 7 hours is 7 x 3600 seconds after the time the order was opened.
Maybe piptician has done something different with the 1 order case.
