i asked the vendor the same question this week,

the bot open 0.2 lot instead of open twice 0.1,

i think it will be fixed in the next version,

regards

think it doubles the lot when there is high probability of winning

Hi all,

I'm using IBFX(US) Mini account with leverage 1:50, the lot sizes recommended by FGB (i saw from earlier comment if i'm not wrong) are as below :
0.01 for capital <250 USD
0.03 for capital 500-1000 USD
0.05 for capital >1000 USD

So my questions are,
1. Since accounts type used by them are Standard, but my account is mini, so i have to change the lot size right ???
   From 0.01 >> 0.1 (if capital <250 usd), 0.03 >> 0.3 (if capital between 500-1000 USD) and 0.05 >>0.5 (if capital >1000)
2. After i changed the lot size, will the EA stop functioning ???

Thanks and regards,
nilo chan

Hi fxgrowthbot,

I just noticed that the latest download of the EA from the members area has a date of 2/18/11. Are there any changes to the EA in this version that would cause us to want to update?

Just minor stuff, such as it gets rid of the unknown ticket error in logs, but this doesn't actually affect performance.

its rather unfortunate that the system already stopped to update....

New version of my trailing stop EA. Can be used with FGB or any other EA. Download at the bottom of this post.

Hi kenny is it possible to add a stop loss take profit function to compuforex trail? i want to use it to modify trades with other eas ....

thanks in advanced

Nick

I would recommend using caution when using a third party trailing EA, it may interfere with the robots logic. Feel free to test Kenny's but I recommend watching the robot carefully to make sure nothing goes wrong.

ksnikos2000,

I will be doing that in another update, probably in the next 2 weeks as it seems to be a common request.

Just to mirror FGB's comment.....test this thoroughly on demo as there is no telling how the target EA will react. Most times there should be no real problem but if the EA assesses its trades in terms of a basket of trades and you remove one or two trades, the EA may respond unpredictably. Also if the EA actively manages trades, there could be a continuous fight to change the stoploss, which will fill up your trade thread with hundreds of modify orders.....it would also fill up your trade logs which will ultimately crash the platform when the file becomes too big to handle.

The best way is to monitor the Experts tab to see what the EA's are doing while they are working together.

Hi fxgrowthbot,

Hope the restart issue can be fixed! We really need this feature for live trading!

Thanks!

I have the trades from the 18th February still open on my account for this EA. I don't believe I've restarted my platform. I notice yours have closed out. What could be the problem on my account?

Mine too not closed the trades, i installed power edition.

I have the same thing here too. What brokers you are using?
 I use FXDD

At Interbank Australia, FGB doesn´t work corectly, but at HotForex works very good.
