Since I am big fan of ND's work, and out of interest - I decided to run this EA while manual trading today.

3 majors all ok - see attached - had to turn off machine so exited early - so did not get to see the exit based on nonlagma.

2 questions

The EA was modifying the stop loss constantly - keeping it away from the price action - is this because its in the mode of exiting based on the nonlagma ?

What nonlagma settings is it picking up ?

Regards
The stop loss modification was inherited from the version which uses Labtrend3 which will place stops too close to the current price - the SL gets hit, but the EA will open a new position, where the SL will get hit again, and so on. It keeps the stop loss at a minimum set by MinStopLoss. And it uses current bar information. I may have to change the current bar logic, since
I am not using Labtrend3 on this EA.

The NonLagMA settings it is using is the "big" one, and is exactly as ND's
template dictate.

One other thing that I found - based on Aguda's last post - ASCTrend Risk
is set to 3 on ND's template. The EA uses ASCRisk=1, please change the setting to 3 so the EA & the ASCTrand indicator lines up on the chart.
