I am running ea on 3 pairs. It has some funny behavior. For the first pair its opening 30 stop pending trades on both sides but for the second one its opening 20 pending orders and third one its not placing any pending orders at all so can anyone help me and guide me the cause? i have different magic numbers for all 3 pairs... thanks
Becose your broker allow you open less than 100 (or 200) pending orders at the same time.

It's due on Greek news, EUR down.. Dunno, all blown.

Hi Radityo, how are you doing!
how come your account still survived?My GT1000 is totally blown. I see your post #546 you said "While my GT1000 is blown with $576 equity left."
how come it came back to life!?

and that's 3400% on your GT500 is crazy dude... good work.
what setting did you test on live now?

you didn't intercept at all(no stop cycle,or etc)?
i just run it, no intercept at all. and it blown

Mine is blowing too...

I don't know why it didn't stop orders on -100, it keeps losing

Do I hold it? Do I keep the positions open?

this one is activtrades... the issue is that another account by the same broker (demo on same EA) got "richer"...

the issue for me is to test the EA extensively and for long continuous times thats why i am not switching to earlier versions yet... so we find the issues and advantages.... so we can milk this EA to the max....


the new cycle limiter radityo made (for which i hope he was not offended when i tried to tease him)... is a very good add on and on the right direction ...

i believe a friday early close should be a must for all of us when we are using it as well (even if its implemented in the EA...it should be not overlooked)

Thanks.

I've also read that, some VPS are close to Data Centers, and that are connected via Optic Fiber, and that bla bla bla, it seems pretty good to me, I mean, a dedicated server means all the power of a CPU just to "that".

Do you think I had loses because of the speed of price? It's changed so much the last 8 hours.

the VPS offers you a greater advantage over your PC/terminal because of better connection, its uptime and because of low latency which means better working of the EA overall


regarding how the EA works you should understand that it not the holy grail to everything being perfect its has some "defects" to certain movements for example big gaps during the friday's close and sundays/mondays open...

so losses shouldnt be attributed to the EA as such....

thats what i am trying to understand from various demos i am running for the past few weeks taking in advantage the greek saga in place....

i believe the next version of radityo will "correct" many issues and assist you in getting better "advantage" of the EA... but still how you work it is going to be totally different to everyone else

Thanks, the bolded part I think is the one that I care, because... as you said earlier, your EA didn't take the profits because of the speed of the market, and so did my EA.

So a VPS could have done that a LOT BETTER

If possible, a small request to add informations that should not be very time consuming to code and that I think are important.
At point 1 add + - net positions.
At point 2 add two informations, pips to break even and pips to target... and somwehere pips to stop loss too.
I also think it is possible to shorten the various items, such as "pendinge sell" may be "P sell" or PSell or something like that.
Thanks

I think that is the nature of having low latency to your broker's server. Actually I have another method for closing all orders using another multiple EAs. So actually this EA will just "announce" that the orders needs to be closed. Then multi EAs will close all of that. Once every order is done closing, then the control will be given back to this EA, and it will start new cycle. So, the idea is to close all of your orders simultaneously, but the only issue is that you have to run multiple EAs at the same time, which will require you to open multiple charts. Or I can create this order module as indicator, so you don't have to open multiple charts.

But that's just an idea. Will need to think how to really implement that.

Hi, where hv u been?
R U using tickmill?
Both of my accounts are considered lucky. In Live, it would have been blown or probably will still stuck with the current cycle. I recognized, in this demo account after Greek issue, the orders which is inside the gap was filled. In live account it would've been requoted (if it's Instant Execution) or moved. In my live account, before the Greek I turned it on, but it was having no large amount of open order yet.

Hahaha... no ,I'm not offended. As long as it make sense and feasible to do it as well.
I just thought of something few seconds ago. We can try some other thing like starting STOP orders at this time I am writing this post, take 2-3 cycles then stop. Do the same thing on the next day. We'll see about that.

{quote} Do you think a VPS could work better?
I never say you have to, but it is better.
Infact, you should choose a point where it is really near to your broker's server. Most of brokers they would have their server setup in London (like Tickmill). But again, that's just my opinion.
With that also can't guarantee your execution time will be better. That depends on the broker's server performance.

Point 1, I don't understand what is + - positions.
Point 2, yes, I'm planning to add that in the future.
Shortening the words, yes, we can do that. Like Current Profit we can shorten it like "CP". But I have to manage the dictionary somewhere in this thread.
Nv mind, I think this is a good idea.

Regarding the new version, I think I need to delay for sometime since there is 1 issue I found.
It created another cycle while the current cycle is not finished. And this happened at my Live account!
Luckily the order is not executed yet, so I closed it.

I think drawdown is not that simple since I need to calculate all the orders and all orders history.
The bold text, is the one I really want to avoid, because it could really consume your resource on the PC where you run this EA. I need to keep EA as low resource and memory as possible.
