{quote} Setup is not performing as expected. Setting it at closure mode. To closure mode all charts, hit F3 and add a global variable closure and set its value to 1. {image}
All positions closed.
Now I am setting it up as follow:
EURUSD, NZDUSD and GBPJPY
ScalperGrid activated, StartLotQty set to 0.05, all charts.
Note this setup is for the explorer ScalperGrid_25K

After using an EA with this strategy for 2 years now with no loss, I decided to take a loan... I encountered a problem though. Using 30 pip grid size, starting lot 0.1, it seems that the banks very well worked out to only allow a total of 4.something lots to be traded!!! (I got this information from a broker after seeing it stop at 4.5 in the tester.) Please, if anyone knows of a broker that allows more, (I'm talking no less than 20 standard lots), to be traded in a single trade, please let me know ASAP. I got a 6 digit sum loan I'd like to start...
I used a tick scalper EA a few years ago with up to 150(!) lots trade size without any issues with Pepperstone. What was strange that even 150 lots went through immediately without moving the market even by 0.1 pip, which means that my acccount was B-booked, as real Fx market liquidity on centralized LMAX was much thinner, i.e. my 150 lots should have moved bid/ask by at least 0.3-0.5 pips...

Of course B-booking means that all my profits came out of Pepperstone's pocket and they did not like it, so within a few months my account got the infamous "virtual dealer plug-ins", suddenly causing huge execution delays and slippages, taking the edge of the EA away...

I'm sure everyone else has been seeing this, but I thought I'd share anyway.
It looks like the Chinese market is having adverse affects on most Currency Pairs, but especially AUD. I'm going to be closing AUD based pairs 2 hours before High impact Chinese news from now on.
The image attached shows a move on AUDUSD which was triggered by the Trade Balance Event today on the CNY symbol. My basket went to 0.01/1.27 before closing with profit.

Resuming trading on GBP.
The EA will automatically go to Closure Mode Friday after 14 GMT hour unless you set parameter FlatOnFriday=false.
I do always flat on Fridays = true, I like to rest free of worries during the weekend.

I did add a new parameter to select the start end time to use, (TimeToUse) You may select either Local_Time, Server_Time or GMT_Time. The StartTime and EndTime will use the selected time to calculate the start-end times. thanks for your support, bauta

The EA does not like trading on Fridays. To override it, set parameter FlattOfFriday=false (not recommended)
