What if the World is Wrong?
bermaui314:
The difference is the risk to blow out your account is increased. Isn't clear ?
"High risk equal High return while Low risk equal Low return".......the word return here might mean gains or losses.
The reason that the Dis Martingale back test look much less risky is the lot-size was fixed to 0.01 from the beginning of the test until the end, that is why return was only 992$, if we increased the lot-size we will make more profit and draw-down will increase too
Take a look to the next example where I risk only 0.01 fixed lot size:
Profit Factor is 1.85 , Maximum DD is 3.13% or $315 but return is $559 or 5.59%
If 0.01 lot lead to $315 DD then 0.15 lot will lead to about $5000 DD (= 50% / 3.13 *0.01) but profit will boost 15 times also , take a look to the back-test result with 0.15 fixed lot-size.
As you can see profit jumped to a new level but risk also jumped to an extreme, because high risk will mean always high gain/loss and vice verse.
So now what is the difference between using fixed lot and Martingale?

How to Trade the Gold Silver Ratio ?
Skansi:
Roman, I do not agree with you....
the insider guys do not know anything more than us... there are tons of examples of this, most notably the Lehman Bros and CL. Nobody knew anything.
As for gold, I do not remember any CMT (myself included) claiming a break of 2000USD.
Regarding bottoming, do you have any evidence that 1166 is a bottom? As far as I can see there is no sign whatsoever of bottoming, asides wishful thinking.It is actually 1180, not 1166 (I am wrong). I was looked at minimum price on the right hand side of the chart.
I read hundreds of articles - they predicted that gold will break the $2000 level (Google it, you will find it).
You look at the wrong guys. Yes, there is someone that knew.

Pending Order EA
Hello Forum, good day.
I'm trying to finish a Pending Orders Expert Advisor that takes the OHLC prices from the previous candle/bar right when a new bar/candle is created and +DI > -DI for Buy Orders and +DI < -DI for Sell Orders, but somehow there are times that it takes this values from two or more candles behind. Also I need that for Buy Orders only when the previous candle is Black the order is placed/filled and for Sell Orders only when the previous candle is White, but I don't know what I'm missing that this is being ignored sometimes. I'm new to MQL5 and would really appreciate if someone could help me out with this or point me in the right direction.
Here is what I have so far:

Experts: MMA_Breakout_strategy_Volume I - coded by WhooDoo22.
Hi WhooDoo22 ,
I am a novice in the EAs. I downloaded your EA and while backtesting was giving compilation issues in lines 9 & 10 so I removed the periods in those lines as follows
"extern string CodedByWhooDoo22="";
extern string ThanksToMQL4Comunity=""; "
After this change the EA compiles and tried doing the back testing with data for EURUSD from 2010 jan 1st to 2015 jan 1st. But I am getting the following errors in the journal tab and no orders are placed.
" 3 06:53:38 2014.12.31 10:54 MMA_Breakout_strategy_Volume_I_-_coded_by_WhooDoo22 EURUSD,M1: invalid takeprofit for OrderSend function

3 06:53:38 2014.12.31 10:57 MMA_Breakout_strategy_Volume_I_-_coded_by_WhooDoo22 EURUSD,M1: OrderSend error 131"
There are lot of repetetions of the same error. Please guide me about how to solve these errors.
I have attached the report along with this so that you can gete some more information.

Discussion of article "How to Access the MySQL Database from MQL5 (MQL4)"
I got an idea on the tick value problem. I am running a multicurrency EA and I start out getting a lot of info for each pair. So it gets a bit like "hammering". I will change that so
that the tickvalue will only be asked for when needed. (and saved)
- Updated --
Not completely in the green. Have made the change above. Optimization still works. No error messages when starting EA. OK will be when the EA has taken a trade ok. Have to wait.
This is running a 32 bit version of the EA in a Windows 7 64 bit environment. It will at least temporarely solve the problem if it works.
I only fetch the Tickvalue when the first order is on its way and save it.

Filling types
kemalturgay:
Why not simply try ?On the specification window, the filling type of a pair is designated as "all" with my broker.
But, on the "new order" window, there are only two options: FOK and IOC.
Can I use "return" in this case?
Additionally, if available, with which function I can see the used filling type for an opened position ... I could not find such a function?
You can't get this information for a position, only for orders.
