how does the ea manage to hide the pending orders from the broker?
if the order is not transmitted to the broker (to make it "hidden"), it is just a market order managed by the ea, right?

To you and I, the EA set hidden pending orders, but these will be market orders once the value of the currency is hit by price

Hi Craig, I am guessing your pips counted are for the mini lots of 4 on each trade?

Hi Craig, obviously I looked at the same pairs as you but applied some support/resistance and trend filters. Whittled the trades down to cadchf, eurjpy and usdcad. I cancelled the eurjpy when it didn't show signs of moving in the right direction and ended up taking 105p on cadchf and only 40p on usdcad as I exited all trades by 10.49am London. I thought the gbp pairs lacked any definite direction so discounted them for another day, I had virtually no drawdown so I might have been lucky but am satisfied with the outcome.

Thanks for the update! Can you get a myfxbook link to show traders your results?

Craig I can't reconcile your results with your myfx page. You say 474 pips banked with gbpcad still open yet on myfx book your history shows eurcad at -190 and usdcad -190 for a total of -380 with gbpcad at a running -170 so that makes -550. My charts agreed with aagarcia regarding the losses on cadchf and gbpchf so the total is probably closer to -900 odd. The only one not activated was eurchf.
