Meanwhile if you just want to do the trade later if we don't manage to fix the issue. Switch off the ReadSettings option and set the settings on the EA Settings screen instead. I'm wondering if the issue is caused by Russian Excel and saving as CSV? (Excuse me if it's not Russian ......)

Hi Andrew Looking at the file you uploaded as AmazingEA-Settings.rar, it looks like this in a Text Editor. As you can see the commas are actually semi colons which would definitely cause a problem...... {image}

{quote} A great Text Editor is Notepad++. Try editing the file in that. It's just not as easy to see which column you are changing.

One possible answer is to use 0 for False and 1 for True. For example when you wanted to risk 10 per cent you need to put MM=True for the EA to use the Risk setting. Another...
