yes, because the ea will only trade that size, otherwise. You might want to wait until the EA has just started over, so you don't lose anything.

~Shiva...observing your explorer...your broker might have some high latency, looks like it was doing good, but recent trades have closed slightly negative. You may want to do a ping test ~Shug...it appears your explorer shows acceptable latency with ...

The absolute worst is if price zig-zagged perfectly to cause all orders to be opened, then you would have a permanent floating loss of about 30% of account balance. ~real click make sure you'r going by the time in MT4, on the bottom of the chart. ...

example: start time 12:30 stop time 12:29 The EA won't open any new orders after 12:29, before 12:30.

#3. is correct...been there, done that, got the T-shirt cut off. I've slaved the hours away already stressing about your worries, no need for you to re-live it. Just today's price action was enough to close all the trades at least once. The target ...

~K VERY OBSERVANT!!! good...that's the reason there's 30 orders and just the spread between them. The target is quite low, so if the market is ranging, there's not going to be a whole lot to see, and it may take 8-10 orders on a side to "win". This ...

It does that if you don't have the green experts on button, on the main terminal, turned on to start trading. I never figured out how to rid that bug, but when it's on, it's gone. my coding is as rusty as my rooskie...

I think that's a bug leftover from my mods...I only care about outcome, not appearance. I wouldn't trade anything else on the account this EA is on. Make it start, minimize it, watch your trade explorer. VPS is a really good idea.

you can change the start time to a few minutes in the future, make sure the end time is 1 minute before, so the EA continues to trade. Sometimes it waits until the "default" time is reached to start, but once it starts, you don't have to worry about ...

It's not a problem. That's $0.50, pretty typical. Spread flunctuations don't affect this EA. Don't worry about how spread apart the orders are, 0.30-0.70 is fine. ~MidasFG good...My rooskie is rusty...how much have you netted so far? Would have been ...

Still demoing...this project will help me prove it's worthy of funding. I'm having VPS troubles, I'll have to get it sorted out, and post it up. I have traded gold manually live, not posting that. This is about this EA.

that backtest might look nice, but it can't be very truthful. You can't backtest when you use equity target to close groups of opened trades--sorry. But, hook it onto a demo account, link us to your trade explorer here, and in a couple of months ...

right, no TP...all trades are closed on equity target, which is already set ....on the best setting, of course! I have tried all kinds of various TP, SL, equity targets, levels, blah blah blah....this is best, and while it's not extreme green ...

ah, more logic to divulge... Yes, the EA will automatically close all orders, and start over automatically...it truly is set and forget ....and hope the power doesn't go out. lol There isn't any reason to put SL...the way the EA works already has SL ...

Finfx closes during rollover, and then spreads go back to normal, which on micro account is .30-.55, which is the highest i've seen. I don't see much point in trading the ECN because the spread is the same, with additional commission. You can select ...

I need to mention when you start trade explorer it won't display any trades until a trade has been closed for the first time. You can either open and close a manual trade on your demo account, losing the spread, or just wait until the EA has closed ...
