ecTrade replied Jun 27, 2010Oh, I originally tried backtesting with starting balance of $3,000 and 0.1 lot size, and everything worked fine. However, when I changed the balance to $1,000 I started having this problem. So, it's probably good to be sure you have enough money in ...

ecTrade replied Jun 27, 2010Version 4.1.0.3.1_h — Okay, I think I may have figured out the problem or, at least this is what I noticed when backtesting with one pair. You can only go so many levels high before the total lot size gets too high and it won't place any new ...

ecTrade replied Jun 27, 2010It's not a bug. The fix was designed to work only when use_sl_and_tp is set to false. Sorry. If you are trying to set it to use "dynamic" TP values, you will need to go with version 4.1.0.6 or greater, although these are not setup to hedge. ...

ecTrade replied Jun 24, 2010Have you tried doing this with one pair alone? If you do and it works, then it means it's not setup to handle multiple pairs.

ecTrade replied Jun 24, 2010Actually I tried adding the hedge to version 6 when you first mentioned it (which closes everything out by TP) but, it was a little more involved than I thought. Maybe later?

ecTrade replied Jun 24, 2010Actually that shouldn't make any difference, so long as there isn't more than one instance of the same pair. Or I believe this is how it sorts the orders (both Symbol and magic number) when closing them out.

ecTrade replied Jun 24, 2010That I'm not sure about. It has to be designed in. If not, and the close out price is based upon the Account Equity, you're liable to get faulty readings, which might explain why you're having problems. Oh, it's a pain-in-the-ass trying to design it ...

ecTrade replied Jun 23, 2010Oh, on this particular version (03_h, which is closest to the original), the close-out price is averaged out and doesn't set the TP values. You will have to go with version 06 if you want it to do this, although it's not setup to hedge.

ecTrade replied Jun 23, 2010Yes, that is correct, although I believe this is what Raph19 specified. I could be mistaken though. And yes, if you made the hedge progressive as you suggest, it should help to extend the trading to the next level. Although you'll have to go that ...

ecTrade replied Jun 17, 2010Yes. Yes, I believe it should work either way. Also, if you set lot_multiplier_2 to 0, it will disable it, and effectively does the same thing. Yes. Actually, it holds the original hedge value (lot size) and effectively doubles, triples and ...

ecTrade replied Jun 16, 2010Hey, thanks.
This is the same as the closeall_target_price in version 9.1. Of course it's been awhile since I've even looked at it, so I can't be certain that it works. It seemed like it was at the time though.SWB Martingale EA

ecTrade replied Jun 16, 2010Oh, these are the options I created for setting up the hedge. Yes. Yes, this is correct. Actually this is a separate function entirely (requested by Raph19) and has nothing to do with the hedge. Please see this post. The h_tp_factor is a percentage ...

ecTrade replied Jun 15, 2010You can try posting a thread in the brokers section. Although I heard DeltaStock was supposed to be pretty good, although they are located in Bulgaria I believe. They have their own platform which is kind of funky though, but you do have the option ...

ecTrade replied Jun 14, 2010I have no idea what these are? I basically use the default settings, except I might set the range and tp_in_money values (and possibly lot ratio) differently. Shirt protection, what's that? I prefer not use SL settings myself, and opt to find more ...

ecTrade replied Jun 14, 2010Of course now all you have to do is find an account that will allow you to hedge ... at least in the States. Also, it wasn't my idea. It was raph19's. I just implemented it.

ecTrade replied Jun 13, 2010Okay, now it's doing it at level 8. But, basically since I doubled the lot size, from level 7 to level 8, that would make sense. And, in fact when I checked the journal, that's what it said, "not enough money." Will have to try it with different ...

ecTrade replied Jun 13, 2010Okay, I think I know what happened. The lots total got too high, so it wouldn't open the next order or 8th level. In fact I went back and retested it, after doubling the initial deposit, and it had no problem placing the 8th order. So, this is just ...

ecTrade replied Jun 9, 2010I'd be willing to do this if I felt up to it. I'm kind of tied up right now. It would have to wait until the weekend probably, before I could get started on it.
