{quote} if (AutoProfit) {tp_in_money=AccountEquity()/100*tp_factor;} tp_in_money=5000/100*.2 tp_in_money=$250
Hi All,

I am confused now..... if tp_in_money=5000/100*.2 then tp_in_money = 10 no ?

unless you meant tp_in_money = 5000/ (100*.2) then tp_in_money = 250

how is it written in your code ????
the market is not random but anything can happen.

I'm gonna do the same, but if it was a real money account, I'd be turning it off.

These are my test pairs, all doing well, but I might drop EUR/GBP

EUR/JPY AUD/USD
USD/CAD EUR/USD
USD/CHF EUR/GBP
GBP/USD USD/JPY

Has any one had any other pairs, that might cause trouble?

The correct value is 10$ if you set the tp_factor to 0.2 for a 5000$ equity.
This is the logic in Allin5 EA which I believe is still the same for all the new EAs issued by Magix.
Unless there is a change in the logic for tp_factor in the new EAs.
Magix can you please confirm if there is any change in this logic?
Thanks.

This part of the code, I haven't modified...nor did I write...

But looking at the way it is written and comparing it to Sarahs account, if was $10, her orders should have closed at $10.
(assuming Sarah is a gal, sorry if I am mistaken here Sarah)

This simply doesn't seem to be the case.

So, as code is written again:
if (AutoProfit) {tp_in_money=AccountEquity()/100*tp_factor;}
My maths tell me should be a dixie too...

But, if MQL4 understands this as:
TP=Equity/(100*Factor)
Then
TP=5000/20=250.

Sarah will have to let us know if this closes at this point.

My ninja skills on this, maybe not what they should be. But observation dictates the latter is the way.

Since you didn't change anything in the code I can confirm that with Allin5 the calculation is:
tp_in_money=AccountEquity()/100*tp_factor
Which means for a 5000$ equity and tp_factor=0.2 all the basket trades will close at a sum profit of 10$.
I have seen this happening many times in my account.
I really can't explain what is happening with Sarah account unless I have a look at the complete settings file.
Thanks.

Magix,
As per your calculation, to increase the TP, the factor should go low.

eg:- 100/(100*.5) = 2. but if the TP factor is 5, the value will be .2 , so there is some confusion here.. I have been using tp_factor and the results were as per my inputs..

May be Sarah's "TP_In_Money = 13" overrides the TP_factor..??

.2 money factor and 13 tp in money.
tp_in_money=13.

So, maybe autoprofit is false?

And there hasn't been an M15 trigger on grid when profit >13.

Just woke up...sorry...

Not sure about overrides...but this too could be the case.

Typically, with these, it is the first profit condition met, close trade(s), in profit...



Maybe I'll shoot it over to the platform tech gurus...see what they can offer.

yeah.. There is a chance.. She has Tp_in_money = 13 and autoprofit = false. Sarah can confirm it..
