I have been using the VOM ever since I first wrote it, have fixed a number of bugs, mostly with the handling of the protective stop, and also changed the code to match changes in MT5.  Attached are the updated files.  

Comments very welcome.

Paul, thanks for the new version of vom. Many thanks for the quick update and for the quick replies too.
 

I've been inventing a bicycle for a week, I've succeeded quite well, and then bam! Here it is - ready, and what a gorgeous one!

Paul, thank you very much! I wish the project development!

This newer version also doesn't contain a proper file "Supports and Resistances..." but only a second copy of another EA. Also the "...Order Manager Tester" is actually entitled "...Order Tester". Is this the right file?

Thanks!

"The VOM controls this risk by maintaining a server-based stop at a configurable distance away from the tightest virtual stop."

That's sounds fine at first, but (in some cases) what happen is that the server-based stop end up being tighter than the loosest virtual stop.

It's specially true if you decrease de distance, like:

Config.ServerStopLossMargin=1;

 Also, it would be great to have the same security system to keep the profits, maintaining a server-based take profit. Don't you think?

 

I've spent the last few days trying to get this working, but I am always getting the same type of error as Marcelo has mentioned above.  Does anyone know if this works anymore?  The error happens whenever I try to open a trade, even when using the examples supplied with VOM.  Is anyone able to help me get it working?  Any help would be much appreciated.

This library is now mostly obsolete as MT5 is providing hedging account. You can still need it on netting account, but is it really worth it.
