wolfe, your a great coder.... (but having worked on martingales long enough to know better is that most of em act nuts).. I guess before you go code nuts, I would say my question to you or anyone viewing is why are you interested in martingales? Are you trying to double up because you were wrong the first time or right the first time and didnt put enough on the trade? I am not asking anyone on the thread negatively.-- just coming from someone who has been in this business awhile--- What is your philosophy of the build? Typically, in any trading are you wrong 10-15 times straight and blow the account? --- you will be if your going against a major move on a 10 martingale Therefore, I believe this should be a major part of the programming. Kayvan, is saying indicators now.. but thats a little late on this type of ea as programming would have to restart and is likely not really even doable from a programming standpoint in martingales. but the second solution is even more challenging. --- open another order in the middle of a candle if it goes in your direction but also martingale at the end of a candle? I read it as,,,guess and hope it gets there. No offence , to Kayvan. He is trading manually and the screen looks too easy and alot of things make sense. ITs not the same in ea land.


"the second solution and best solution(in my thought) for this problem is , let the market determine for our lot sizes increment . how ? if the market wants to go 50 pips above or below the previous candle, OK let it go but not with 0.1 lot size position , in this case market tell us we need 50 order with 0.1 lot size . it means we must release 50 order, in every pip movement in it`s direction ,above or below the previous bar.( or every 2 or 3 or....pip market movement depends on trader risk able ) .
