Any description of new methodology or are we just left to suffer the unknown?

Don't have an ego. Always question yourself and your ability.

Well...nothing has changed in my approach, just how my orders are handled. I despise MT4, so I'm just trying to do as little in there as possible. Only thing I have to do there now...well, don't even have to, but it is actually the easiest...is setup pending orders. Just place them...I tweak them elsewhere. This chart...

I just setup my orders, and then monitor from there. The partials are hands free. I can step in and close whatever...whenever, but I just have it setup in a really nice way for a few different pairs now. It is almost hands off trading. Still getting completely used to it, but I think I'm in lurv. Makes playing both sides of the market very easy.

Also really streamlined the code, and it is fast, fast, fast. C, Java and MQL working in lovely harmony. Found a way to eliminate problems that "Context Busy" errors would give me across brokers, too. It is now only a minor nuisance, but doesn't bottleneck everything.

Was being a little aggressive today to try and blow holes through the setup. Held up very well...and made some decent bank, too!

Cracking a beer!
