thanks i have done that

ps my magic number is left at default 8888

Quoting radityo.ardi
{quote} That could be the same issue like what happened to cornelius5. Go to Tools > Global Variables There must be 1 additional variable called GTSTOP8888. Set your GTSTOP8888 variable to 0. Basically 8888 is your magic number, so if you use another than 8888, it'll belike GTSTOPXXXX variable to 0.

error reason 5, would that be Error Old Version based on the link here?? I'm totally confused.
Can you get me screenshot from Journal tab / Experts tab?

I will release a new version just to reflect the error messages when order creeation didn't happened...

ok, got it.
This issue is new to me. This is due to one of the parameter in the set file, doesn't have match with the current ex4. Let me know what settings you are trying to apply, so I can get it from my VPS.

{quote} I like the idea, this should be safer. or maybe until 12am SGT the market is still slow. I tempted to try this on live account too. GT1000 with "close when no open order" 00:00 - 12:00 WIB. so far I tried on demo 00:00 - 14:00 WIB also good.. the profit is okay. but most importantly i like the low drawdown the original GT1000 00:00 - 14:00 WIB on 5000$ demo account (run for a month): {image} GT1000 00:00 - 14:00 WIB with 500$ demo account. with "close when no open order" (run for 3 days) {image}
Thanks so much to Radityo Ardi for sharing EA. I'm newbie from Indonesia too.
Hello Slianto, I wanna follow your setting GT1000 CNO 00.00-14.00 WIB on demo, is that right if I fill Start Time : 00:00:00 and Stop Time : 14:00:00, Date & Time Base : Local Time. Please correct me if im wrong. Btw please sharing us your GT performance. Thanks in advance.

For people who have problem with EA not starting: I've tried to restart MT4 and EA (ver 1.4) still didn't want to start.
I opened tools/global variables and find a stop variable on Magick Number 8888 and just deleted. It was there for who knows what reason.

It's worth trying to delete whatever you have in global variables before you ask for help here.

Exactly . if the trades didnt open and if you dont want to mess with the global variables then pls change the MAGIC NUMBER

You need to set the time the EA runs. Also you have the optrion "Close when no open order", so that the end time is hit, It will close the last open ordern, but not open a new one.

Time is not the problem here...the problem is that when the TP is reched the EA is still going and open trades.. What i want it to do is when the TP is reached close all the pending orders and open trades

So far I know this is not possible (yet). You need to hit the "Stop next cycle" button.

Welcome to the room, bro!! My settings is always under Singapore Time. So for WIB, you need to shift 1 hour earlier.

Just checked my trade, now my GT500 stuck in long cycle. You need to think whether it is good if you increase the lot. Because basically GT500 is high risk already, considering the fact that DD is 44% high. My suggestion (as suggested before), lower down your lot size and target first by half or quarter. If you feel comfortable for a long period of time, then you can increase it.

Active: No, this indicator is to tell that the EA will not create any new pending order. Actually this is based on Global Variable that I've set in the EA, GTSTOP8888. Remove the setting or set back to 0 will do the fix.

Target Profit Dynamic Base will only be used when you set the target to Dynamic. Otherwise, it will use direct value as in Target Profit.
On the dashboard, if you see Current Profit (yours is -28.20 USD) is more than Fixed Target (yours is 10.00 USD), then it will close. Based on your picture, it won't close because the profit is less than the target.

Time will only be considered for Opening the new pending order only. Not closing the order. Which means even though it is already out of the time range, the order closure logic keeps running until target reached. But once it is closed, it won't start new pending orders again since it is out of the timerange.

It will close. Unless you state in the setting as Force Close All when End time is reached, then it will close all no matter whether you are in profit or loss.
If you want to close all current orders (force it), click on Force Close All.

Versioning history is not available. Even on my machine was not there. I'm planning to move the code and compiled ex4 to GitHub, so you guys can refer to the old version.
