If the EA is trap in a loop of the market, "this is the only weakness of the EA", there are 2 option to get out from the loop.

Option 1 - close everything & allow the EA to restart.

Option 2 - is called "+1 formula". the formula is when the actual market is sitting on a strongest support & resistance & reject you will add an entry, if the price is in the Support add one Buy entry, if the price is in the Resistance add one Sell entry, the lot size to be use is the exact amount of the active entry, once the floating turn into positive close everything and allow the EA to restart.

Caution: this step will only be applied when the EA is trap in a loop. a Market Loop is when all the entry is triggered, or the other side of the Grid are all                          triggered. that is the only time you need to choose on the 2 Options.
