Anyone else spreadbetting, what settings do you use?

I have set it to 'FALSE' and is opening the correct size but it closes trades @ 3pips TP rather than 30?

Got the same question as tradingshed on a UK SB account. I've set all instances of the EA to the 'true' setting on the basis that 1 lot = 1USD (or £1GBP, in our case) but could do with a steer on this.

Maybe PocketGuy could answer this? :)

   Hello Ivan,

today I checked with my broker (IBFX), they did not issue build 419 because they think there are many issues to solve.

so TOMs EAv1.91 can work well with MT4 build 409? I need the auto-log-in function in v1.91. but I am doubting whether v1.91 support build 409 or not.

thanks!

1.91 won't work under 4.09 MT4, what you need is EA 1.89 with autologin support. I've started a thread with this version download link on user forum couple weeks ago, it should still be there. If you won't be able to find it - contact us in live chat and we'll give you one

Hi Ivan,
The EA 1.89 with autologin support is at
1) https://www.forextradersdaily.com/tomsea/forum/toms-ea-discussion/toms-ea-with-autologin/
or
2) https://www.forextradersdaily.com/tomsea/forum/toms-ea-discussion/toms-ea-upgrade-issues/#p457
?

Also, does the 2 downloads at https://www.forextradersdaily.com/tomsea/toms-ea/ea-download/
i.e.
MT4 Build 418 - use v1.91
MT4 Build 416 - use v1.89
come with auto-login?

Thanks.

Happy to oblige :)

I set the EA to 'true', taking the £1/$1=1 lot literally, as a lot of 1.00 on the SB account is £1. All trades are coming in at 30 - 40 pips... Martingale spiralled up on a couple of pairs, but don't think the lot size setting is related. Happily one has now closed for profit and the other is nearly in :) Everything else (other than the market!) behaving nicely...

Hope this helps

Thank you pocketguy, obliging and precise as always ;-)

I think something might be wrong as my Hot Forex account is also closing trades @ 9pips profit on several pairs and seemingly randomly.

This has only started happening since update to MT4 v4.19 & Tomsea v1.91. All was fine before. Both on my UK SB accounts and Hot Forex, trades are closing for random 7/8/9/etc pips.

Anyone else noticed that?

My settings are currently set to FALSE on both type of accounts, although I take your point on the SB version.

I am having the same issues tradingshed. My trades are set to TP of 7 pips on most of my trades. This is on two seperate accounts so its not a broker issue. It all started with the upgrade. Tom are you working on this?

-----------------------
MT4 Build 418 - use v1.91
MT4 Build 416 - use v1.89
--------------------------
Correct.
Use link in this topic to download 1.89 with autologin-
https://www.forextradersdaily.com/tomsea/forum/toms-ea-discussion/toms-ea-with-autologin/

As for the issue with Take Profit - I know that I've been communicating with a lot of you guys in skype and forum, but let's put some more info here:

Right now we can't determine nature of this issue, so there is no obvious solution for it yet. If you can - please gather information like log files from expert tab and screenshot of trade tab and email it to me at [email protected]

I'll give you an update as soon as possible

I upgraded to v1.91, but left MT4 at Build 416 until I knew 419 was stable (didn't update to 418). Everything seems fine...

Ivan, is this OK, or do you recommend updating to Build 419?

Hi all, I am so desperately needing to go back to MT4 v4.09 with both Hot Forex and GKFX. to be honest, there is not one of my EAs that is behaving as they should! Is there anyone here that has performed a 'roll back' before? I have a v4.09 for Hot Forex but I ma not sure how install it over my v4.19 without deleting all my EAs templates etc. will it be ok just to install over it?
Or is it better to use a different procedure?

Anyone has a v4.09 from GKFX? (Pocketguy?)

cheers

You shouldn't need to delete ea's or templates etc. Close your MT platform, delete the v4.09 exe file & the updater file (otherwise it will keep trying to update again) & copy paste the 409 MT exe file into the main folder then restart. Any broker MT exe file will do. I have done this with ea's left installed before. It won't change anything else you have installed, everything should just resume where you left off, but be careful with the version of Toms you have installed if you go back to MT409, or any ea re coded for later MT versions - you will need to go back to v1.89 & remove it from the chart before you roll back to MT409 as well to avoid conflicts. So for toms you would need to to roll back MT at the same time as well. I surprised you are having problems with MT419 - all my platforms are running ok with it on Toms 1.91

v4.19 has the same problem as any after v4.09, apparently makes life difficult for EAs to authenticate.

In my case, I have two EAs that will lose authentication status very often and require manual restart.

TOMSEA itself, is taking profts at 7/8/9 pips rather than the normal 30 and that only started since v4.19 for me

Since v4.19, I lose connection with my brokers very often (both of them). I use MT4i EA to send me a warning email everytime connection is lost and (if and when) automatically reestablished. since v4.19 I receive tons of warning emails.

Generally speaking I think that v4.19 is the most stable since 4.09 and that is why I have updated recently after contacting all EAs developers and getting forum feedback. I did not update to 4.16 or 4.18.

However, it is still turning out buggy.

I have now tried your approach with hot forex but as soon as I turn EAs on, the platform crashes. Perhaps TOMSEA v1.91 is the responsible EA?

Did anyone on this forum try the rollback with success?

Thanks

Here is on more guide of how to downgrade 418 to 416 build - https://pipburner.com/metatrader-build-418-bug-alarm-how-to-switch-back-to-previous-version/

hope this helps :)

MT build 416 should be ok to roll back to with v1.89 of toms as well - that's what I was using before I updated.
Incidently for anyone using CNS vps i came across something odd - if you have one instance of toms running started with autoboot & you then start a second instance of toms on another platform manually outside of autoboot the second one crashes. If both instances are started using autoboot or both manually started no problem though. I ran it by their support with no solution.

FYI,
I also got connections cut off intermittently to my MT4s on v416.
while its equivalent (on T-pt) v409 works just fine.

update-prevention-tested on another MT4 (unused for a while, v409)- took out its liveupdate.exe & update.ini ;
it opened without updating.

just in case need to rollback,
separately saved terminal_v409.exe
that's one stable fart to keep :)

Hi Ivan,

why did you not send the direct download link?
there are lots trouble to your sendspace!!!!

please send use the direct download line for v1.89 with auto login function.

this was a cross version which was delivered to support, I know for sure that it's 1.89 and it has autologin. There is other download on the main members site, but I am not sure whether it has one or not. Sendspace link works fine for me

As for the versions question - it's better to stick to 1.89 on all MT4's below 4.18

@craneliu

Have sent you a PM with the download link that worked for me.

Cheers

   HI Ivan,

thanks for follow up!

one the sendspace, after click the download link which you suggested in th forum, there is no direct download available, lots of ads.

may it need me to pay sendspace, then download?

thank you!

from the forum >>> (click on 'download from sendspace',
not on 'begin download' — ads are annoying )

Current situation on all my accounts is unusual - no open trades on eurusd or gbpusd, all baskets have closed out & no new trades since the drop in both pairs. Haven't seen this for a long time - seems strange no new trades for a while, a little worried something is wrong but no errors in logs anwhere.
