note this is not the broker, this are the settings. The difference is small and for a long term dangerous

- Look in the comments CHFJPY 1.9 - 6.0 is not good or 7.9 - 3.6 it is luck that the orders closed

- and a small profit of 8 - 12 pips

Dirk, did you manipulate the EA's settings to get so many entries or running latest EA update as is?

It is still the V.2.2 of that EA.
I took the settings from ghostbiker but adjusted that times so that he trades from 15 minutes before Tokyo opening until 2 hours before New York closing.
During those 3 days I did not do anything to the EA. Fully automated runthrough. No GBP currencies and SL to 200 pips, like ghostbiker suggested.

DirkH143:

- for the limitorders you can test 30 Pips TP

Dear All, my settings for today are a little bit difference ... all are yet positive.
1) All the pairs' strength differences are standardised at 8 - 1.8 = 6.2 (I personally find that the 6.2 is already strong enough, perhaps I'm wrong and at higher risk, yet need to test further ...)
2) No USD pairs at all, means 28 - 7 = 21 pairs

Due to the Comment defects, I can't differentiate Stop and Limit orders. SwingMan is brilliant with such dynamic stop and limit orders to detect the current market prices movements, therefore can optimise the chances of getting the best open order prices.

Awaiting for Ver 2.5. Thanks, Chin

Opps, I forgot to mention, I also changed :-
1) GMT trading hours, shorten the trading hours as I find other than the set hours, it is hard to have high currency strengths, waste of time to eye the monitor.
2) Auto_MaximumPerPair = 2

I have previously recommended for the "commentEA" parameter to write only a letter, because Metatrader no allowed long EA-comments.
I have seen that some members use "S" for StopOrders and "L" for LimitOrders settings, which is very good

SwingMan:
1. What is real mean by "Auto MINIMUM Daily Profit Currency" ?
(note: sorry iam not test that function yet, because market is closed.)

That i looking for is : "Auto MAXIMUM Daily profit currency"= $50= This mean all order is auto closed if: profit >= $50. (equal or bigger than).
Iam sure the same like: "Auto MAXIMUM Daily loss currency" , but in opposite way. ("Auto MAXIMUM Daily PROFIT currency" )

2. Whats comment to input : "Dont Trade Pair".
I want to input several pair with Big spread.

{quote} Kalawe, which broker are you using that is so active? I'm using 3 different brokers and none of them had more than 1 closed positions in the past 24 hours. Thanks!!!
Just setting low EA on diff strength (this is like agressive methode). You can use this setting on SLOW market.
But you cannot use "agressive methode" on "BUSY market".



============================================================


TO ALL : Switch off or Re-setting standart : automatic SL and TP. (SL= 10 ATR ; TP = 1 ATR)
That is not good ratio RR. You cannot use this setting with real account.
As you can see from result: SL 100pips (10 ATR) & TP 10-20pips (1 ATR).
One pair hit SL will wipe your profit ,OR will get plus with big DD (big floating minus)

Vote:

"Maximum win" and a "maximum loss"

Everybody will easy understand this means.


"Maximum win" , means= If total maximum WIN $... (will closed all open, except pending)

"Maximum Loss" , means= if total maximum LOSS $... (will closed all open, except pending)

We cannot win all pair BUT we can auto close when we have TOTAL order is positive. (money in the pocket).



Note:
This EA auto trade different pair with different spread, so we cannot use fix TP and SL.
Because from broker every pair have minimum setting TP & SL.

- absolutely sure we can trade with fixed TP and fixed SL why not ??
had not to do with a EA and not to do with the spread or minimum distance

- most Brokers have not a minimum distance and if, then 1 Pips or so by currencies

- look in Post # 278 you can see exactly 20 Pips per StopOrder = 20 Pips for fixed TP in my settings

- only if you trade with ATR SL and TP you have not a fixed SL and TP
