It's OK, he hasn't opened more than two at a time so far.

But yes, he's no ordinary first place spokesman - a scalper.

 
You have to look at the account through the investment password, not through the website.

No one can open more than 3 orders.
 

If I'm not mistaken, an Expert Advisor always has a Take Profit of 1 (one) point!

Where is it possible in what brokerage company? Or did I make a mistake?

 

There's a heated discussion about this on winwin2007' s profile. It's hardly possible in decent DCs, but this is the Championship. Last year organizers said that the conditions will be as close to the real ones as possible(requotes, slippage, for example), but it seems to be a different case here. Apparently, a man only trades at night when the market is quiet.

Whether it is calm or not does not matter, the minimum stop was positioned at 7 pips, but this Expert Advisor opens a trade with a take of 1 pip.
 

I hope for a sensible decision by the Organisers which will not allow an expert who is unviable on a real account to win. This is of course a miscalculation either in the fluffiness of the quotes, or in the size of the spread, or the minimum level of stops. Obviously, such an expert on the real will be strangled individually as such trades are not hedged.

Hello.
Please clarify, is it really allowed by the rules to set take profit only one pip away when opening a position, despite the minimum Limit & Stops level being two pips?

There is no error here. The minimum level is calculated from close price, not from open price. That is, in a BUY trade, the minimum level should be higher than the Bid + limit level, not the Ask + limit level. If the spread is 2 pips and the minimum level is 2 pips, the buy takeprofit can be set 1 pip higher than the Ask.

I hope the sponsors of the Championship will give their opinion.

If you can not work with T/P 1 pips on the real, then the participation of this EA in the Championship makes no sense.
