Thank you for suggestion, it looks reasonable and we decided to take it. We will change Rules of ATC 2012 - increase total number of pending orders.
Thanls Rosh & MetaQuotes! That's a great news to hear. So, I am waiting for the info on the rules update.
Already done, see Rules

Hello MetaQuotes,
Do you consider changing or totally abandoning a following rule of ATC 2012:
The maximum amount of pending orders for all symbols at any point in time is 12. (by the way I have just checked that on MetaQuotes Demo server the same limit is...100!)
The reasoning behind such request is quite simple - when given 12 trading pairs, it is extremely limiting the chances of multi-currency EAs that implement:
- strategies based mostly on pending orders, e.g. break-out strategies, pivot/Fibo level strategies, oscillator-based short-term trading in a horizontal price channel
- sophisticated strategies using "virtual" position management with orders, like presented e.g. in these articles -> https://www.mql5.com/en/articles/217 or https://www.mql5.com/en/articles/88
- multiple levels of stop loss / take profit using pending orders
just to mention a few of them.
