Just to let you, I'm still trying to find out the bug (not opening recovery trades), trying by disabling different parts of the code, but no results so far ... a real mystery !
Hi Gamma_gallus
This version the martingale progression is working, when i use the Rsi trend filter i have been turning reverse on trend change = false, also if when you get a chance post the version you are testing and will give it a look.
Thank You, I'm going to compare your version with mine to see if I can figure out what's wrong, because so far I haven't been able to find the bug ..
Hello,
Here attached the version which causes me so much trouble .. I can't figure out the bug, it's maybe something simple but since I'm not a coder it becomes quickly difficult for me...
I've tried to compare it with your last version, but there are too many differences in the code and functions ..
I hope you will be able to find the bug.

By default the take profit is 10 pips and lot increase is also default at 1.

GammaThanks a bunch for posting detailed IBFX demo stats--impressive. I see you are not intra-pair hedging, correct? Also, how do you determine when to cut your losses, i.e. a "mental" stop loss, max equity loss, etc?

Hello,
In fact I tried to choose pairs that are ranging or at least retracing quite often.
I don't intervene on the EA, because I really wanted to see how it would behave alone.
What happened in Feb, was that :
-the EA had too many trades opened (different pairs)
- Many were in negative, so higher lot sizes opened
- USDJPY went really bad = the last allowed trade (highest lot size allowed) was really negative
- My free margin was almost equal to my margin requirement so MT4 started to close the highest lot size (USDJPY - biggest floating loss) to preserve the account. It did it 2 times (because the EA re-opened the same lot size immediately after MT4 closed the 1st one) - MT4 did close also this new trade : so 2 big losses
- Finally, I think USDJPY started to retrace a little bit, enough to close all UJ positions. So it finally came back to s normal state (free margin level).
Thx

GammaI did the same thing on the EURUSD way back when mr tools and newdigital first posted version 1.01 (and I haven't traded EURUSD since then). The only difference was, I had the Swiss Army EA close at a set max $ loss to prevent a margin call. It's posted somewhere in this thread, or just reply and I'll repost it. The nice thing is, it can run on the total account loss, a specific pair, or specific magic number of a set of trades. Maybe a USDJPY specific stop would have saved a few euros? mr tools coded this into a subsequent 10points_3 version somewhere here as well.
Also, to analyze pairs, I'm thinking of using the 20 period D1 RSI as a manual filter (per mr tools) and trading 10points_3 only when it's "stuck" between 45 and 55. newdigital, you might prefer 30 and 70? Trading RSI breakouts with a range trading EA doesn't make much sense now that you mention how you're filtering.

Thanks, I already have the Swiss Army EA but never got used to it .. also it doesn't do few things I really need for my manual trades.
Anyway, usually I prefer to let the EAs I'm testing alone, to really see if they get broke after a while (thing you can not see if you intervene manually). That gives me a clear overview after a while, when I analyze the results, to assess if indeed we need to act from time to time, when and in which kind of situation.
thx
