Major Update
Added new parameters and features by request of customers:
- 'TF for OPO method' - timeframe for the 'Use OPO method to handle TP' feature: the EA will close trades using open prices only on the TF of your choosing;
- 'Break Even after this Level' - break even feature after the specified Grid level is reached;
- 'TakeProfit for Grid' - now it allows any value including zero and negative. The weighted TP can be set with a separate 'Weighted TakeProfit' option;
- 'Do not adjust TP unless new grid level opened' - if true, the EA will adjust TP of open positions only when a new grid level is opened. The user can manually set their own TP, which will stay current until the EA opens a new grid level;
- 'Fixed Initial Deposit (Tester only)' - lot size will be calculated based on the initial deposit, new profits will not be taken into account;
- 'HourToStartTrading' - hour to start trading;
- 'HourToStopTrading' - hour to stop trading;
- 'Keep Original Profit Level & Lot Size' - when skipping grid level, the EA will keep profit target from the original (standard) strategy. It helps boost performance. The EA still needs 'marker orders'. A feature that allows skipping levels without such orders will be added later.
Improved performance;
Minor bugs fixed.

- Added a new button to the information panel: "New grids (NOT) allowed". It allows you to prohibit opening new grids. The button does not affect already open grids. Green button means that EA works as usual, red button means that opening new grids is prohibited. Button duplicates the 'Allow Opening a new Grid' parameter, but in a more visualized manner. This feature was added by a customer's request
- Added "Auto Split" option allowing the EA to trade with any lot size/volume without limits. Most brokers have a limit of 100 lots per order, so if the option is enabled, the EA will automatically split a large trading volume (e.g. 10000 lots) into multiple smaller orders (not more than 100 lots per the child order). It is intended to be used in tester to allow testing the EA on all the available history
- Added new parameter: "Use OPO method to handle TP". If enabled, the EA will use a virtual TP handled only when a new bar opens. It will sometimes allow the EA to catch more profit from a trade. This feature was added by a customer's request, but I won't use it on my accounts
- Added new feature: "Smart TakeProfit". If enabled, the TP will be based on the current volatility, with the first 2 trades having different TP levels. It increases EA results in tester due to more trades being opened. However, default version of the EA (the one working from 2018) won't use it. This feature was added by a customer's request

Optional update
- Added new feature 'Manual Trading Buttons'. It allows you to manually open an initial trade: the EA will pick up the manually opened trade and manage it as usual. The buttons are affected by the following parameters: Symbols, Maximum Spread, Maximum Symbols at a time.
- Added new parameters:
Minimum Free Margin % - if Free Margin% falls below the specified value, the EA will not place new pending orders and will cancel already placed ones.
Hide TakeProfit - allows you to hide take profit.
Grid Level to Start - allows you to skip a certain number of grid levels, trading will start from the specified level. To calculate entries correctly, the EA opens "marker" orders at skipped levels with a minimum lot size.
- Several small improvements that do not affect performance.

'Close trades & stop trading until restart' - the EA will close all open trades/grids and will not open new ones until the EA/MT restarts;
'Prohibit opening new trades' - new grids will be prohibited as long as the floating drawdown is above a specified value;
'Prohibit opening new trades until restart' - new grids will be prohibited until the EA/MT restarts.

I have been using 3 EA's in live operation from the provider for almost a year and can only say that I am convinced. All EA's have made money so far. Thanks
