D*mn, typed an answer. But clicked the close tab cross instead of switching to the other tab.....
Again, but shorter:
@ Boki. Not sure if it can be done easily. The EA looks at the balance info to determine the amount of profit. So runnning two EA's (with different magic numbers!!) at one account will base the $profit target on the same info. The EA's need to completely rewritten to change that I guess. But on the otherhand, i'm not a programmer. Maybe somebody can implement your idea.
@ Aajduk: It is possible. Depends on when you started the EA's.
The normal versions are kind of hedged by the devide in a BUY group of 7 pairs and a SELL group of 7 pairs. See first post, second link.
The .taz versions BUY and SELL BOTH groups. That's why Metacoder warned us that the hedging-safety isnt in the .taz versions.
The .taz versions can make a lot of profit in a short time, but also a lot of loss. Drawdown can go to 25% and higher. The normal versions are lower in max drawdown (app. 15%) , in my experience.
The Addsix-versions open only 6 different pairs instead of 14.
If you want to search for the description of a version, click on the paperclip in right corner. Click "hide images", search the mq4 file of the version you want info on and then click on the post to read it.
Or click on "Metacoder" Look under "internet activity" and click on posts to quickscan all his posts. Just search a bit and all the info can be found

If someone can recommend good MT4 brokers that still allow US traders, I'm all ears. Forgive my ignorance in this area as I've been focused on trading strategies and coding for so long.
The money is there to be taken, we know how to do it, but we need a level playing field.
In exchange for help and guidance in this area I'll be the best little EA coder you ever saw.
If you compare the Offshore Broker list provided earlier in the post (http://forums.babypips.com/rate-my-broker/36221-going-offshore-escape-cftc-35.html)
with this one at
http://www.forexbrokercomparisons.com/
you might find a few with good leverage and EA friendliness. The latter is sortable by "Scalper Friendly" which in my mind is pretty close to EA friendly. Correct me if i'm wrong..
Good luck
