Hi Can you explain the strategy a bit. I was thinking of buying this EA because the DD is so low - but why are there a couple of trades at 2 full lots when the rest are at 0.1. Seems like a recovery trade, what happens when the 2 lot trade hits SL, a 4 lot trade?...this seems a lot riskier than I thought. Thanks for your help, KK

Grid/martingale elements, beware! That's why there's only a demo, losing a demo account doesn't hurt.

Thanks Solar, I was hoping for the EA author to respond but maybe you can help - what do you see that makes you think it is a grid / martingale strategy? Yes it doesn't show much faith if its only demo - that's true. Lets hope the author responds to this.

The system is a grid system which is protected by a percentage stop. There is a bug in the code that we currently putting right

extern bool EquityStopLoss = TRUE;
extern double EquityPercent = 30; //30%

Start(){
   if(EquityStopLoss&&1-AccountEquity()/AccountBalance()>EquityPercent/100)CloseAll();
}

void CloseAll(){ //Close all orders
   bool result=false;
   for(int i=OrdersTotal()-1;i>=0;i--){
      OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES);
      if(OrderSymbol()!=Symbol())continue;
      if(OrderMagicNumber()!=Magic)continue;
      result=OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),OrderClosePrice(),Slippage,Blue);
      if(result==false){
         Print('CloseAll failed with error#',GetLastError());
         continue;
      }
   }
}
-------------------------
Not to be used in conjunction with other EA's or manual positions as their floating DD/profit will contribute to the AccountEquity() and AccountBalance(), making it skewed. For that AccountEquity() and AccountBalance() would have to be loggged at the opening of the 1st position.

Edit: Indenting does not work. Sorry about the hard read.
Consistency above all.
