I am EJ SHORT @137.000
As simple as possible: 00 level trading
{quote} MrTD I have a question about the script. . Would it be possible to not place SL & TP as i have the WUKAR trail for that, i know you need SL for calculating lot size, but it doesnt need to be placed.
If you want to risk it you can delete them after the stoporder is placed, but others have reported that they were saved when connection was lost.
But if you need to learn by your own mistakes, go ahead. Far better to learn from others though
All the best,
MrTD

.Also the WUKAR trail places an emergency Hard SL at 15 pips and i prefer to have the actual SL/TP hidden. I would adjust it myself but i can't for obvious reasons.

{quote} Thanks for your good advice, I understand, as this has happened to me and therefore it is I have 2 alternate mobile connections and access to my neighbours wifi in case of emergency. I never walk away from the desk so i have that covered
I use WUKAR Trail as well. It will close the trade at what you set it to, but only if you are connected to the internet, otherwise you are at the mercy of the market.
If you really want to, you can drag the stoploss and or takeprofit lines further away (or delete them) and hope the EA is able to close the trade when it needs to.
It is your account, you trade it as you see fit
But as for me, I find sticking to the rules as much as I can, seems to work most times...
No need to give Murphy an easy opportunity to stick it to me
All the best,
MrTD
