Stupid question: Would running 2 platforms on same comp can cause those problems? I got another MT4 open on demo...no testing.
It's not a "pickup" Hiredwhip, it's a pip TRUCK ,hahaha!
I don't say

From what I see in your strategy statement, Hiredwhip, it seems there are no open Carolco orders...even they are selected in the settings...can you confirm this?

Yep, and he is going to leave you to work out for yourself why there are no Carolco grid trades in whip's lost. You will have taken a step forward in your understanding of how this bot works once you have done so.

The information I post is for Steve's benefit......
Have a nice evening
mine is not trading 
. i'm testing on 3 different brokers but no luck.
could it be that i'm getting too many " TestGenerator: unmatched data error (low value ..... and price .... mismatched) " errors?
when i saw Bob and Steve's names i jumped in to test
. i didn't read Bob's manuals yet. just wanted to see it alive
hopefully i can get rid of the errors
Thanks Bob and Steve,

On the subject of trend-trading, here is a little toy for you - http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...59#post4899659
As soon as I read the strategy, I thought of how this is right up whip's street - requires hardly any intervention.

As soon as I can get out of this wonderful bottle of "G" I'll raise the new Fun-O-Meter and set it up....
Have a great week

Well, from my understanding, as they are selected in options, must have been there too, only reason not to be ordered is the trades are ranging trades continued into the trend trades, so the bot doesn't open pendings...but "Aloow change of origin to Trend"=false, so...maybe I'm a bit tired or it's something I do not get.
Also, Hedge is default value, multiplier=3 and value 10, but lots are doubled(if that's hedge), then should be recovery L3 (2xintial lots). :-)
Or maybe I'm too tired....
According to Bob, GU is mostly a ranging pair. The D1 volatility calculations must have remained below the Range threshold, so BB never looked for any trend trades, so there could be no carolco grid trades. L3 was never required for Recovery as the market behaved itself like a good little market and L2 was all that was ever required.

Steve, I must say I appreciate your dedication in this, but maybe you will find (again) some time to look at that issue that I mentioned before... I'm running atm this test on G/J from 2008 until present and there's still the problem with the Pending Orders unfilled, they freeze any trade management, when happens...and this is IBFX, like yours.:-)
You find Statement attached...loss at the end is right due to this issue, a certain position left open and went negative(look when was opened, in 29 october 2009!)
Just look at the profit until the end of 2009...and I closed it, as it was doing nothing further...18.02.2011 (also, its the source of DD)
P.S. Also, when Hedge is in place, Recovery is aborted, so, if price goes against the hedge, things are out of control :-)
I don't say
