Hi dongsky thanks for your reply always...
My question was on my initial scout.. which i just found out from my broker.. FIFO policy(US law which has started i believe since 2009)

Lets say I started with 1 1 3 attack and market seems slowin down and attempt to reversal.. so i start to close down my exposure from 3, 1, and leave my scout on its current condition for next possible attack right?

But this FIFO policy doesnt allow me to do that..why? because I can only start closing lots from first lot(initial scout)... FIFO(first in, first out)...

now i get your point...

why not close it manually... if still you cannot do it... then i should say better off to find another broker my friend... just be carefull when choosing one because there are a lot of 'fly by night' kinda brokers... around...

and i guess i was wrong with my previous reply... it should be the most recent opened position must be closed first... last-in first-out...

we'll let's dance!!!

p.s. hey, your english is fine... and like you, it'snot my first language too...

i'm eyeballing the terraing atm... looks very tricky to dance... but we'll see... with the right mm, i guess it should be good...

Good afternoon, evening, night or where ever you are ...

Have just entered my trading room.
Seems to me more difficult than yetsredays trading ...

But have to do my preparation first ....

@Eddy: When you are still intersted in using a CloseAllscript, the only way I see to get you up and flying is to use my complete toolset (the same as Philip is using on MT4). Have no idea why I can not get a standalone version of that script running.
So please let me know. I'll send you the full package then ....

Hi Niels,

yep you're right, it's very steep the terrain at the moment... needs a lot of nerve to do wide attack and maneuvers tactics... but better to implement blitz... i guess... just be nimble

with that closeallopen-script... i already have one... i write it myself it work just fine though but when i'm closing more than 20 positions... it stalls sometimes... and very slow... so i just always have a maximum exposure of 15 lots... but thanks a lot anywayz...

i wish i could sit right next to you this time... but i think it's not enough to move up...

BTW: You can of course close all your positions by opening a position in opposite direction with the accumulated lot size. When it is opened you are efectively flat.

And the following is very important:
Use the "multiple close by" feature, that you can find in the close position dialog to close out the positions against each other. That will recharge you the spread that you have invested for opening the opposite position ..
That can be done easily manually. So you can close/squarre all your positions with only using the Order-dialog one more time ...

That's the way my script is working too.

But you will be able to test it soon ...

Hi dongsky!

This is amazing!! You have a great trading journal here. I don't really remember how I landed here (I don't go here n there except the "trading systems" forum...sad?) but I found it interesting and started reading from #1.

Through this thread I came to know about fti and feb and I also started reading with fti's thread and there is no stopping. While I'm trying to digest what is says I have a feeling within that this is the very crux of trading.

I have tried 'n' number of 'trading systems', indicators, EAs just to find that my account was blown twice. When I started looking for real PA trading, I was disappointed again. I don't know why, but none of those could really teach me how to catch the fish.

Thanks to you for introducing me the fti and feb Also thanks a TON for posting your charts. They are actually the tutorials for me. I can see how one should look at the PA, read the charts etc.

Please continue posting your trades.

Thanks again and Warm Regards,
