Thanks, almost what I'm looking for.

I'll have a tinker, just need to change

i) The initial buy/sell from random to chosen.

ii) If stop loss is hit robot will double position in opposite direction.

iii) Robot opens no further trades after TP is hit.

I'm not a programmer but I'm thinking.

i) I need to change the "GetRandomTradeType" to solve the first part of my problem:

           protected override void OnStart()

           {

                    Positions.Closed += OnPositionsClosed;

                    ExecuteOrder(InitialVolume, GetRandomTradeType());

            }

Hi, I think this will be a Martingale type robot.

 

When I start the robot I want to be able to choose buy/sell, volume and TP/SL.

 

Take for example a 10K buy order with 30 pip SL and 30pip TP.

If TP is reached I want the robot to take no further action.

 

If SL is hit I want the robot to open a double volume in the opposite direction. (eg 20K sell with 30pip SL and 30pip TP.)

I want this to repeat doubling until TP is finally reached.

 

Any ideas peeps?

Wow tradermatrix, thanks a lot. Multiplier feature is a great added bonus too.

Works really well in a volatile market and with support/resistance. Means I can get my life back instead of staring at a screen.

Do you have a paypal email, I'd like to send you a gift.

Kindest Regards

Andy

Andy hello
I am glad that this robot suits you.
my paypal email address is in my profile.
I have tested the robot last night in the demo, the idea is good, and I'll use the real account.
cordially

Smashing, I find it is best with JPY crosses that move 100+ pips a day, I like to manually enter when the market has made a large move or pull back and sell high/buy low.

It's also quite good for trading triangles like on a 1hr to 4hr chart. I'm using a 30pip SL and a 33 pip TP.

Thanks again.

Andy
