Good catch! I submitted a request to check the code for that. It might be a simple math error on the code line so I think it is an easy fix. I tried it out on 3, 4, 6 max buy/sell and got the same 12/12. I even tried changing max charts but didn't change the 12/12 display. Steve is pretty quick with this kind of fix. Will keep you posted.

Hi Pablo51, can you post your .set file? Will be easier to assess that way.😲

I don't know if the new one takes over the open trades or not. When you shift to the new version, you have to remove the existing EA from each chart and re-drag and drop the new version of the EA to the charts again. I don't think it will recognize the previous existing open trades. If they are kept as a temp file that is shared between old and new file it should be good to go though. If you do the "hot swap" and it works please let us know. It will be good information to know since updates come out every month as Steve improves the EA.😁

Hi nakos! Steve posted the .set file for this strategy here in this forum. Here is the easiest way to get the .set file to your correct folder (rather than searching for the files on your computer).To get it, scroll back a page or two from this forum entry to find the posting that Steve put the .set file in.Right click and save it to your computer in a place that's easy to find (I put mine on my desktop). Once you have it on your computer, right click and copy (or cut) the file.If you already have the EA attached to a chart:- Right click on the chart and select "Expert Advisors&quo...

Thanks Steve!

An additional note. With the equity trail, it should protect profit as the price moved along with the 2nd and 3rd trade instead of holding on as direction reversed to the point of going in the red. If he has spread plus commission he may have had enough negative value to his trades to not reach the equity trail trigger (it never reached the point of activation that would protect the profit).This is something to consider for this option. Maybe trigger the trail earlier with a lower equity percent? This might also limit the earning potential too if price reverses and "taps you out."...

Okay, I think I see what you mean. So here's what happened for the current open trades for this EA account. I'll try to break it down for you. Please let me know if you still have question on it.First trade was short (sell) at 108.313 and his initial lot size was .13Since priced continued to move in the direction of the short trade (profitable) by 20 pips from 108.313 to 108.103 (take the last digit off for pips vs points) it triggered a 2nd tradeSecond trade was another short after the 20 pips movement from the last order (1.3 (original order) x 1.3 (lot multiplier) = 1.69 rounded t...

Hi Сергей, if you are referring to the .set file just released, it should be 5 trades deep for the USD/JPY as it hits each pip step of 21 pips in one direction. So 1st trade taken, then 2nd trade at 21 pips, 3rd at 42 pips from 1st, 4th at 63 pips from 1st, and last trade at 84 pips from the original trade. So it has to move pretty far to get to the 4th and 5th trades. Are you looking at pips vs points?

The original Trend Trail Stop function is still not working. Steve has the equity trail as a interim fix. So that is the one you want to use instead of the older Trend Trail Stop. The equity trail stop is working fine though and is a good money maker.

I actually had my broker help me with that one (FXCM) as it was one of their EAs I downloaded.P.S. I asked Steve for a copy of the .set file for this EA. Hopefully, he will send to me and I'll share with everyone else here.

Aha! That was it!Glad you got it ;-)

Flex EA - TrendSurfer - REAL dalam Sistem Perdagangan Apr 19, 2016 at 12:47

Oh, I had that problem with an EA once! There was one of the setting I was forgetting and once I selected it it worked find. Um... let me see if I can remember which one it was.

Flex EA - TrendSurfer - REAL dalam Sistem Perdagangan Apr 19, 2016 at 12:43

That does sound strange. When you drag the EA onto a second chart it does not place it on that chart at all?

Flex EA - TrendSurfer - REAL dalam Sistem Perdagangan Apr 19, 2016 at 12:38

Hi Pablo51, you will need to attach the EA to each chart. If you leave everything as SetByStrat it will use the default settings that the strategy uses, i.e. TrendSurfer will use the TrendSurfer defaults, however, if you change the setting from SetByStrat, the EA will use that setting instead of the default. Hope that helps. 😁TrendSurferRealTakeProfit= 0VirtualTakeProfit= 34RealStopLoss= 0PipStep= 21LotMultiplier= 1.3VirtualTrades= 4MaxBuyTrades= 12MaxSellTrades= 12FloatingTP_Pct= 0EquityTrail= OnEquityTrailTP= 2EquityTrailSL= 0ReverseMode= truetrendMode=true

It might be the settings that Steve had in which the market did not meet the conditions to trigger a trade. He may even have temporarily took the EA offline manually so that he could adjust settings.

Flex EA - TrendSurfer - REAL dalam Sistem Perdagangan Apr 19, 2016 at 00:42

Hi Сергей. Good question. I didn't seem to have that issue on my account. I'm looking at my trade history and I have trades opened both days.

Flex EA - TrendSurfer - REAL dalam Sistem Perdagangan Apr 17, 2016 at 15:00

You mean the pause in trading for the weekend? If you have trades held over the weekend it will just continue where it left off. You shouldn't have to stop the EA as some trades may be open for days or weeks potentially.You can open and close manual trades without interrupting the operation of the EA doing it's own independent trades automatically. However, if you have your risk set to account equity, that will impact only so much as your manual trades effect the equity balance.Hope this helps!

Flex EA - TrendSurfer - REAL dalam Sistem Perdagangan Apr 16, 2016 at 17:03

It will automatically close at the stop loss you set and take profit at the take profit you set. You shouldn't have to manually do this, but you can if you want.If that's not what you meant, if you can be more specific or share your .set file I can look at your setting and be able to give you more advice. You can also e-mail Steve at support. This current version of the EA has added a equity take profit, and you can set it to stop loss when you have a certain drawdown by percent of your account balance or equity. You can also set a solid stop loss after a certain number of pips.Ple...

Hi Pablo51, I have a live account and a demo account. I run the new setting on the demo first. One of the things Steve (the EA programmer) states is because of the virtual trade feature of the EA, back testing doesn't work well to get you an accurate picture of how it will do. Forward testing (running on demo) is always a good idea. Try to set your demo account balance to be close to what you have in your live account. You will get a better fell for how your risk settings will impact your real account. If it's getting too close to margin call for comfort, then you might want to l...

Hi, I've I've put the EA on the following currency pairs: NZD/JPY, AUD/JPY, EUR/USD, USD/CAD, EUR/GBP, EUR/JPY, USD/JPY, AUD/USD, AUD/NZD, USD/CHF, NZD/USD.Depending on your account balance, if you are using margin (I have 1:50), you might want to limit the amount of charts that can trade at one time, as well as the max number of buy/sell trades. I'm just using a small account with only $380, so I set mine to only open two charts max, with two buy/sell trades at once. I've set a max DD of 10% of equity (I don't want to get a huge draw-down, but am willing to take a 10% h...
