Today the Manual Trade Panel EA MT4/5 was updated with the addition of Show Virtual Levels on Chart true/false option in (inside) Manual Trade Panel EA MT4/5 settings. If it is true the virtual levels are shown on the chart, including profit/loss values of the trade on mouse hover.

Dear users of the Manual Trade Panel EA MT4/5. Today I've updated the EA and now the time response to virtual take profit and stop loss levels is much improved.

Please update to the new version.

Hello friends,

Today I updated the Manual Trade Panel EA MT4 with the addition of Basket Take Profit, Stop Loss, Break Even and Trailing Stop Loss settings for the overall profit/loss of all trades that have been opened by it.

If you want the Basket settings to be applied in all trades of all symbols that have been opened by the panel, remember to put Manage All Panel Symbols Trades=true.

Please update your Manual Trade Panel EA MT4.

Hello friends,

Today I updated the Manual Trade Panel EA MT4 with the addition of font size setting, that will allow the user to change the font size of the panel symbols and settings. This will solve panel display issues on large resolution screens.

Please update your Manual Trade Panel EA MT4.

P.S. You should change the font size when you attach the EA on your chart, it will not be updated if you change it when it is already loaded.

Great to see the extended Magic number controls impleme, v good!

Just another thought, you may want to add a "Manage all current symbol only function" to the settings

or add it as a button on the panel! (Could be option button - Mange: ALL / Current symb / Panel-orders / Panel order symb)

Thanks

Hello Max, thank you for your nice comments.

There is an option to manage only current symbol's trades that have been opened by the panel if you put:

Manage All Panel Symbols Trades=false

Manage All Account Trades=false

This leaves out the current symbol's trades that have been opened by other sources.

And if you put:

Manage All Panel Symbols Trades=false

Manage All Account Trades=true

you will be able to manage all current symbol's trades on account level, so these 2 options cover your needs I think.

Hello Eleni,

I just bought this ea and when i move from one chart to another, all the trades i have on gets closed, what is the settings that stops this as i move between charts?

I have tried turning the settings to false and true for each too test and did not get the result i need.

Hello and thank you for your purchase.

Manual Trade Panel EA MT4 does not close open trades as you click to another chart, something else is causing this.

I will contact you through PM to see what is wrong.

Hi, first of all, Thank you for this wonderful tool. I would like to accomplish a single chart trade with a fixed starting lot. Manual trades. I now have a symbol changer using which am accomplishing that however it's a pain to enter TP and SL everytime in MT4 interface. While I try to use your tool, it freezes may be because I already have a symbol changer? Now how do I resolve this to put your tool to use?

Thanks,

Sriram

Hello Sriram, Manual Trade Panel EA MT4 is already a symbol/chart changer, so you don't need to use another symbol changer with it, because that probably freezes it.

Put your desired symbols that you want to work with in the Manual Trade Panel's EA MT4 inside settings, including any suffixes they may have and use the buttons on the panel's left side to switch between symbols/charts.

Then fill in the panel your TP/SL levels and your fixed lot size and you will be able to open your manual trades with your desired settings.

Let me know if you need anything else.

Hi, hope you are well! Am using Manual Trade Panel with another developed EA of mine. Basically I use Manual Trade Panel to open pending orders and my other EA picks up those orders. Now The Break Even setting does not work for me with my other EA. Now my question is, is this because the pending orders are placed through Manual Trade Panel my custom EA is having difficulties in getting the BreakEven working?

BTW, My custom EA's magic is set to "0" and Manual Trade Panel EA's magic is as it is "1". Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Hello, what do mean 'my other EA picks up these orders'? Does it manage them? Do you apply the break even with the Manual Trade Panel EA or with your other EA?

If you apply a 'Break Even in Points' setting with the Manual Trade Panel EA, it will manage it properly itself.

The fact that you are using a different magic number in these 2 EAs may be the problem, but that is all up to how your other EA is coded to manage trades from other sources.

Make some experiments in your demo account to make sure that you get what you want.

Let me know if you need anything else please.

When I switch account from live to demo or vice versa, I can still see the panel name on top right hand corner with smily face but can't find the Panel itself, it disappears. I need to remove and reconfigure again and if I go back to the other demo/live account the process needs to be repeated again? Am I doing something wrong or it is supposed to be like this?

Also, is it ok to use same magic no. in more than 1 chart panel or each one needs to have a separate magic no.? At the moment I am using magic no. 1 & 2 for installing panel on two chart panels.

Hello Ajay and thank you for your purchase.

Yes, it is normal for the Manual Trade Panel EA MT4 to be removed from the chart when you switch between trading accounts. If you are trading with more than 1 trading accounts at the same time its better to download and install a 2nd MT4 terminal from your broker's website in order to have easier access to your accounts. If you don't know how to install a 2nd MT4 terminal of the same broker in your computer or VPS, check carefully the gif below, you need to select a different destination folder upon installation.

If you are using multiple Manual Trade Panel EAs attached on multiple charts of your MT4 terminal, it is advised to use a different magic number in each one of them, for the correct management of each panel's trades.

Let me know if you need anything else to help you with please.

Hi,

I had entered max slippage as 100 points (10 pips) in settings but order got executed with a gap of 31 pips, screenshots attached. Can you please look into why it didn't work or did I do something wrong. It has also happened before.

Thanks,

Ajay

Hello Ajay, the max slippage setting is not respected in times of high volatility in most brokers.

Avoid opening trades in times of high volatility is the best way to go in order to avoid such issues.
