Catalin Zachiu: Try increasing lot size ,
or manage lot to true , set it to 2.5
Tested on ICMarkets too, EUR/USD, TF H1, default settings and after ManageLot on true, increased size lot and many more, 500$ account, lost alot
of balance.
Two brokers, two bad results... maybe I wrong something ?

I reffered to the tester spread setting , I trade on live account true ECN with 1 point spread , 7 $ per lot commission . If it is as you say that means that if the EA would have a reverse function it would be better.
SpawnPPC: Do you have any good idea for best
settings ? Thanx !
I get slightly better results with SellOffSet and BuyOffSet set to 0 in the tester but in the live market that is a level with high volatility
and you may get a higher or lower price than reuested .

OK, I will try this too ! Can you share your .set files pls ?
On a real account it shows only negative values. The description says nothing about spread. What broker do you work with where the spread is 1
point?! For the strategy tester, it comes out a great toy and for a real account just a disaster.
Added the posibility to reverse the strategy , replacing stop orders with limit orders . On settings with Reverse strategy set to true Stop loss should be set to 50 points or less , TP to 150 or more , Trailstop to 0 and breakeven to false .
I have tested your EA right now and I find your strategy is very good,but I don't understand why it is free,so I feel hopeful to request
original code from you and reserch this ea together with you,I will share all achievement once I get any progress.
If you agree my request,Please send the Code to my following email.
Hi, the new version 1.2 is adding a minimum lot size message into the MT4 experts log on every tick:
2019.08.21 00:42:56.048Tops Scalper EURUSD.r,H1: Minimum Lot size = 0.01
This will cause log files to take up unnecessary space on the VPS and makes looking for other expert log messages very difficult. Can you please
remove the message from every tick?

That means that the EA is trying to open trade with a lot size smaller than minimum lot size allowed .Increase lot size. It's like trying to trade with 0.001 lot size and the minimum allowed is 0.01. If Iremove that warning it will not pass validation any more. I think that you are using micro account , and that would be the problem , I will look into it to see if I can solve it .

I think there are better error handling and lot size issue management options available to you. For example:
1. During lot size calculation routine using ManageLot function if the calculated lot size is lower than minimum then use the minimum in the
order and place a message in the log.
2. On critical errors that prevents orders you could place a message on the chart and deinit rather than just flooding a log.
Out of curiosity, have you changed the lot calculation formula? Example:
- Using v1.0 with $3772.00 balance and RiskPercent=0.2 setting I get orders with 0.08 lots on backtest
- Using v1.2 with $3772.00 balance and RiskPercent=0.2 setting I get orders with 0.01 on live
I use TDS so I've set leverage on backtest to same as live.
Catalin Zachiu: I removed the log print
for min /max lot size and lot size is calculated using freemargin*risk/10000 . 3772*0.2/10000=0.07544 rounded 0.08
OK, with version 1.2 and $3772.00 balance and RiskPercent=0.2 setting I am getting
orders with 0.01 lot sizes on live. Can you please investigate?
Tested on AGEA, TF H1, balance 500$, EUR/USD... it don't work, after 8 months got only 11$ !!! XD Any idea ?
Great expert, it has the potential to make great changes.
