I ran a few trials with this EA and wonder if it is possible to:

1) When a loss occurs, reset the next open order to a preset percentage of the margin/balance (ie 5%) rather than keep on increasing the entry amount?
2) Can you set a value either a % or $ value so that when losses occur to that preset value, the EA will close off all orders/trades for the day?



Thanks for your time.

I have added a risk management and a basket loss option (in dollars).

I noticed in backtesting all is fine up to Dec 2008. When I run back testing from 14th Jan 2009 till now - no trades. Any reason why?

Thanks,
