This is supposed to happen but clearly does not. This is something I need to tidy up. In the meantime, monitor the trades and move the tp's manually when necessary.

In this specific case what would have to be the manual procedure in order not to mess up the bot's behavior? Would we have to shut down the bot first? Just close the buy trade for a profit at this moment? or set a TP line above current PA?

So today marks the 1 month I am running EOB and now the superseded The Beast.
Here is some stats: (If wanted I can also post a link to Myfxbook)
I had exactly 100 trades taken by EOB/The Beast which was from 12/4 - 12/5
(I used 0.01 per $200)
87 winners / 13 losers
+ 1723 pips
Draw Down = 2.31%

I think posting your MyFxBook link is a good idea, as their charts also show the floating drawdown. Also maybe a good idea to post which pairs you are running?
Nice to see someone posting results

Latest update in post 1.
I have seen globals remain un-removed and tp's remain un-moved when changes in the position required them.
I have seen some logic failures in CountOpenTrades() and have tried to correct them. No guarantee that the fix corrects everything, but it does at lease increase the accuracy.

One quickly question
After the buy was closed at the top, eob should have open a countertrade sell to start recovery on the sell already open and in big dd?
The reentry line is correct, so i'm wondering why it didn't entered the countertrade.
I'm getting something wrong?

Apologize for the double posting but from reading this, this means that to use whitebox trading "properly" we will need to be able to hedge positions essentially. For US based customers any chance for white box trading only when not in recovery? If this sounds retarded feel free to slap me upside the head Steve.

So far this month, up +440 pips and 4.06% on the balance at the start of the month.
Box trading is looking hugely successful. Those trades often simply keep going in the right direction. When they do not and both trades end up filled, pipo's 1.2.6 takes care of the residue quickly and efficiently. I returned home tonight after a trip away to nearly half of the above taken from 1.2.6 dealing with the remaining half of a UC box pairing.
Lovely when a plan works out.
