How to use i-MinLot script?
First, download the latest release from post one
save it on ..\MQL4\scripts folder
refresh your terminal
drop I-MinLot to a chart, example EURUSD (see image)
Attached Image

the following dialog should appear.
Attached Image

it shows Name: Account Number, trader name and broker
account type: DEMO, TEST or REAL/LIVE
Lot quantities allowed by the broker
Contract Size: Used to calculate capital requirements
MinLotValue: when it is 1,000 then the account is standard, when it is 100, then the account is cent
below is a capital requirement calculation, it is the minimum required. As more you reserve, less is the risk but less is the profit.

Hi Bauta,

I have been testing your April 2017- 037 update on my post 1 and I was very impressed, I would like to ask if you could add a stop loss? I know its not the norm in grid Ea's but your 037 ea is a great ea one of the best I've seen for many years but it always fails my testing, see image attached, I tested it for 1 year and it performed fantastic but all it takes is 1 big move in the market and it wipes the account out, If you broke the rules and add a stop loss we could set that loss to save the account, use it sort of an emergency stop loss, it's a simple script but could make 037 even better if that's possible. I use stop losses in some of my ea's as kind of a reset and they wouldn't consistently make money without it. 037 makes good money, if we could re set early when it hits trouble it would soon recover the small loss and get back to making money.
You know me as Geoff Hornibrook.

Thanks for all your good work..

You may use Max_Money_Loss parameter, in money, for stop loss.

Hi Bauta.
All I can say is OMG, I never noticed it or tested it until now and it's changed everything, Great results on first test.
anyone using 037 take a close look at these 2 lines Max money loss & maximum orders.

Cheers mate

I do recommend Dynamic_Grid=true.
if you set it to false, be sure you have enough capital. About three times the normal requirement.

@Bauta I follow your work long time and I am a big admire of your work!
This EA has one of the best strategies so fare and I use it since a few months on my real account...

The only Problem is when going in the wrong direction ( as many strategies) if you could figure out a good hedge strategy it
would be perfect...if I would not have used extra hedges manually I would loose my account a couple of times.

The EA is using to little hedges when in the wrong side, so let us figure out the perfect way to hedge, otherwise the whole work
is for nothing and this would be sad!

Regards
The Pitt Bull :-)

I tend to think more in percentages ... percentage loss of account (double precision) might be better for me instead of having to recompute $$$ continuously.

Hi Bauta,

I noticed an issue with version 037, when it Neutralized, still continue cycles and opening orders. i have not such issue with previous version. It happened when Resume NTZD is True but it continue trading and closed the cycle (buy) without removing hedge orders, which it left the chart with bunch of sell orders. Please check and reply.
Thanks

Set Resume NTZD=false and then continue managing the cycle manually.

Version 037c?
When EA is in channel mode, dynamic is true and opened orders are 6 or greater, the EA contracts instead of expand creating a diamond.
The idea is to trap the market.
Interesting results:

Hi Bauta,

Ive been testing the new 104-037 30th April, Its really great, I was blown away after many weeks testing it made good money week after week until after the 3.60 trade it went to 10.80, I was gutted, thats one thing I never like to see big numbers, I ran 1 year testing with 5k account, it was mega and nearly doubled its money then the usual happened, account wipeout, from 9,900.00 to zero, see picture, its still brilliant and definitely a great ea and I will continue working with it, Thanks again for all your hard work mate.
Geoff
