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.
can you place your live account/s somewhere live? like myfxbook so we have a better look?


ok i can confirm to you that the issue with no recreationals taking place is due to the issue of "touching" the EAs set ... if this is possible look it out because it will cause major issues on live accounts (as you can imagine)....

regarding the thoughts you have and I have and the rest (i am sure) have i believe it would be nice after a few steady releases of your EA... to start creating a backlog of "whats next" and whats needed

as well as best practices... on how to work it better (although i am sure all are going to be directly or indirectly "connected" with one kwd GRID)


BUT i believe the best thing is to keep it simple.... too many things will spoil its value at the end...

{quote} 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.
Do you think that my loses were because of my computer? I think so, I live in another continent, and maybe my pc performance, and my internet connection made the EA not able to do what it had to do.

Or do you think it was some bug in the EA?

Anway I think I'll use a VPS, I need to get it 24/7 for sure it will be better than my pc at 30,000 kilometers from London.

perhaps you need to check at "task manager" and how much ram processed for your mt4 (when EA active). the EA itself instantly close several order at a times, any kind of lag or latency would affect the whole process, period. VPS are much better, and make sure to match your vps server with broker server. I just did the same as radit, use europe vps server while put the EA with Tickmill (server located at london).

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.
Blame on me, my request was too synthetic Point 1, net long or short open orders, like -1 or +2 .
Glad to see that other features wil be implemented.
Thanks

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.
Lately i'm busy with work, been traveling out of town with limited connectivity hahaha
Hmm I try tickmill only on demo,
Might want to try cent account on Masterforex, but haven't decide the best setting yet.. Do you have any advice?
What set do you use on your live?

its not the forex historical date being deleted. but its my trade history deleted. so i can no longer see pass profit and loss.

this is not 1st time happens, i got other mt4 behaving similar fashion...after a certain period of time, it will clear all the trade history.

You mean... you can loss -100$ (might be more because of spreads+commission)
while on other account you win +100$ (might be less because of spreads+commission)... ??

so what you get is ... + 0 profits... but with double commissions (for ECN) + spreads... still a minus here...

yeah quite frankly familiar with limited connectivity, that's why vps would comes very handy. I dont think cent account would be nice option, the profit couldn't cover the vps fee . besides, cent account are quite 'shady' account type. better goes with good execution account type such ECN, the close all sequence would be crucial at it's matter execution process when an EA close several orders instantly. I use the gt500 set, made minor modification active trade perside at 50 (saves ram process on VPS), and start cycle during london session. and one more thing, why planning open an account with MF cent account while you put all the test with Tickmill ?

Hi,

But with a VPS just for metatrader, I don't think there will be any problem with RAM. If a VPS offers 1.2g RAM, it's A LOT. Isn't it?

it depend on how much mt4 active and what kind of ea do you use . and 1,2g are more than enough for run at least 4 active mt4 at once. most process cost 40-50 mb at average, for an average EA such grid trap there's no problem at all. I also try with some news ea which cost nearly 200mb and I dropped later on, similar story with basket type. as my late post are basicly count the vps cost when using cent account for live . 1,2G vps ram for cent that's so meanie for vps service itself.

Hi All,
Good Afternoon to you all in south east asia, and Good Night to all of you in North and South America, and Good Morning to all of you in Europe!

I have uploaded the latest version 1.5 after a few tests and didn't found any issues. Probably you noticed that EA as been removed in the first page. But don't worry, the EA and the source code is now uploaded in http://RdzGridTraps.codeplex.com.

A few things to note:

  1. Built-in issue tracker, so you can track your issues over there.
  2. Note that new feature requests, should only be posted here in the thread. All issues related to code should be posted there in codeplex.
  3. I will post the issue in issue tracker if any issues posted here in the thread.
  4. Upon click of DOWNLOAD in the mainpage of codeplex, it wil download only .ex4. If you need the source code, go to SOURCE CODE tab.
  5. When you visit http://RdzGridTraps.codeplex.com, any revenue from the ads will be donated to Tunas Bangsa Camp (so if possible, please click on it to help increasing the revenue).


Together with that, I want to announce to stop all demo for a while to update the EA to the latest version, and reorganizing the EA.
For GT500, I may have to lower down the settings since it is not realistic anymore for Live account. For GT1000, will need adjustment a few more things.

Note that I will always keep this EA FREE with Charityware License bound to it.

If you ask me to code/fix your EA... it's probably not for free...
