iv uploaded a fixed trade_copier.mq4 on the first post

there was a bug in the tp & sl that caused a rounding of the last digit

for certain currency pairs

 

I' ve been testing this. Jusst want to say thank you so much.

Works great!

 

Bug?

Dunno if this is a bug or not but here's what I've noticed so far.

When i try to close half a position on the master client, the slave closes the former trade entirely and opens a new one (with same old lot). This is a serious issue because:

1) It places me under more risk than I originally planned &

2) It makes me pay more spread by closing the initial trade completely and placing a whole new one. PLEASE I WLD BE VERY HAPPY IF THIS IS RECTIFIED as every other thing works great but this issue which I have noticed.

Thanks in advance.

 

its not a bug

i didnt code the ea for closing partial lots

the comment of the trade changes when u close a partial, so does the order ticket

so trade copy sees it as a new diferent trade, because it is

far as using the same lots

you are likely using settings in trade copy that are not default for lot sizing

so trade copy isnt copying money management

if using default settings, trade copy should just close the trade

then open a new trade with less lots, matching the senders trade size

which in reality will yield the same results as closing half

if you edit the money management settings in trade copy, you cannot copy martingale, or partial closes

default settings are realy the way to go, you get the results you want

if i code trade copy to close partials, youl lose the ability to have other trades

such as multiple trade copiers, or any other ea's or manual trading

on the same account

youv made a couple errors

1. I've downloaded trade_sender and renamed the EA to my Opera UserName, & placed the EA in my Expert folder of the Master Account terminal.

you dont rename the ea, not that it matters

2. I've downloaded trade_copioer and placed it in Expert folder of the Slave Account terminal.

3. I've downloaded http51.dll.txtand placed it in Experts/Libraries of the Slave Account terminal.

i added the .txt because the forum doesnt allow uploading dll files, i coulda zipped it

just remove the .txt so that the file is just .dll

4. I've downloaded http51.mqh and placed it in Experts/Include of the Slave Account terminal.

5. I've downloaded Opera Unit & connected it to the Master Account / Experts / Files as the screen shot below.
