Anyone else with an account in another currency (JPY, GBP, etc...) ?
Martin

Hi Martin,
I just realised that the re-entry function seems not working properly...
Although I set the EA 4 to one-shot operation, it re-entered the trade in two pairs where I had one open trade each and red LEDs...
Anyone else encountered this?
Thankx and greetings,
Oliver

Do you activate the reentry using the contextual menu or directly in the parameters?

Ok guys, instead of sending you a private copy,
For those operating in another currency than USD, download this beta version (the others please wait for official release
) for validating the pips count.
You'll have to close MT4, unzip the content of the attached zip in your mt4experts folder, then restart MT4.
Let me know if what you see in the panel is ok (should be).
This version calculated pips count with current price and order open price. Too simple

I think the way to take profit is a personal choice.
In my case (this is my preference and I don't say that this is the best method to use but it works well for me), I use ATR, period 14 with a multiplicator 0.8. Most of the EAs I activated are with the re-entry flag on. It's look like scalping (it pratically is) I know (I use Bob method with my style of trading too), but it's funny to wake up in the morning and see in the history a couple of consecutive positive trades
I also grab what the market gives me even if I'm sure that I could have wait to get more. But so much opportunities to trade each day, then I take the pips when I can.
Maybe you should ask this question in Bob's method thread. You'll probably get more answers then here (dashboard related thread).
Cheers

I usually used MPTM which was set at the usual settings. We are basically just scalping on a 4H chart and using martingale to get out..
It works great.
I am up like 38% on my account since doing this in 2.5 months..... Pretty cool
We are our own best indicator.
Martin,
what ea are you using for your system?
Are you using a Trailing stop?
if you don't mind me asking
JTH
), but I have coded it to do the job I want it to do I rarely use a trailing stop. I prefer to take sequence of smaller trades instead of letting (and waiting) one getting bigger.

I let the MLFX_NH4_MANAGER EA manage my orders. Sure, it's not as completed as the beauty MPTM (

but if you don't want to tell me just tell me to butt out.

so is that with a #1 ea or #2 ea or #4 ea etc..

My answer won't help you a lot, but I use all EA, 1 to 7 depending of the situation. And this situation is analyze in respect with Bob's method rules.
I normally activate the re-entry with EA#1 and EA#3 when the price is swinging up and down near/around a S/R. But it's not a "written" rule, it's more a "feeling" rule.
