{quote} Ty Diallist for your kind word , very appreciated! I'm also thinking to lock max risk allowed to not more than 2% per each pair so to avoid overleverage the account that could lead to big losses and I don't want this to happen to me and other users using this EA. Cheers, Skyline
I think that is a good idea too, skyline.

Actually, skyline, on further consideration, I will sometimes limit myself to a single, strongest, pair during a trading session, and use 4% risk per trade.

So, I would suggest that your live version default to 2%, but be adjustable up to 4%.

To everyone reading this: If skyline chooses to adopt my suggestion above, it is up to each of you to manage their risk responsibly.

Hi Diallist,
thank you for your input.
The problem I see is that raising risk to 4% per each pair means a potential overall risk of 16% if EA is used on all pairs allowed (EU,EJ,GU,GJ).
So to avoid this EA to be turned into a fast burning account robot, I would prefer to set max risk per trade to 2% which still means a quite high overall 8% risk if used in all 4 pairs.

Cheers,
Skyline

Agreed!

If I ever truly need a custom version, I'll hire you for the purpose.

Thanks skyline. I've got the EA installed and running. I'll keep you apprised of any bugs.

Thanks again for all your hard work on this (1100 lines of code! Whew!)

Skyline,

Great work on the EA! I agree with the 2%. Steady and consistent! The account will grow! Thanks for the time you have put into this EA and your willingness to share it here with others. Looking forward to putting this on a live account next week, too.

@skyline

A bug, methinks...

For both long and short conditions the condition "ADR room down" is the same.
I would expect it to toggle to "ADR room up" for long conditions.

Hi Skyline, I have been testing this EA for a while. I can confirm that it is working in order so far. Every trade has met all entry& exit rules. I have not seen any major bugs yet.

Thank you again for your great EA. I appreciate your time and effort. Keep up your excellent work

Hi skyline,

Not a bug but a concern. I noticed that when a pending order is placed, there is no SL or TP value. Does this mean we are dependent on the EA to apply them at the appropriate price? I'm am not a fan of "hidden" SL or TP. If my platform goes down right after the trade is triggered, and the market makes a monster move, then our accounts are screwed.

Could we have the option to send the SL and TP to the broker, rather than have it hidden?

Thanks

Dial

EDIT: Never mind. I just saw a pending order trigger and the TP and SL appeared. Thanks.

Hi Dial,
good catch !
I checked code, it's only an error in gui label which I'll fix in next release, btw the logic is still correct so EA even if it's showing ADR room down for long is checking for adr room up condition.

Thank you for reporting !

Cheers,
Giacomo

Hi Dial,
yes I'm not a fan of hidden sl and tp too for the same reason, but I had to implement pending order in this way (placing them without any sl and tp) because some mt4 brokers don't allow to set SL/TP beforehand so I prefer to set them by code after pending order is triggered.
Doing so there's still the remote chance that a pending order is triggered (turning into a market order) and connection to server is lost before EA could set SL and TP , so it's safe to check platform from time to time (this isn't a set-and-forget EA).

Cheers,
Skyline

Hi Skyline

This is my first report about UdineEA. I was successful when load the EA and template to the chart. Worked normally on GU, EU and GJ. But I can not attach template to EJ's chart. Everytime I try to do that, my mt4 always crash/hang and not responding as shown on my attachment. Can you tell me what I miss?

Hi senanata,

first put the Chart on D1 timeframe, then load the template and drop it back down to M30. Sometimes the indicators struggle to load on the lower timeframes.

Hi Saek,
i checked for your issue , the calc routine seems to be correct, the only thing that could cause wrong counts is if you have orders in the same account opened (manually or by other EAs) which are taken into account in win/be/losses calculations. If this is the case then just be carefull to use this EA only on account where no other trading systems are used.

Cheers,
Skyline
