- if the position have 150 pips, i close the winning position

- the rule of buy or sell depend only of the position of stochastic 4H and his signal (sto>signal => buy) !!!
this rule is certainly not a good rule, i have to put a best one
but i think that the most important is the rule of the money management (x2 the position if the last was a loss; with a limited maxtrades <= 6, to not have a too big orderlot())

i will try to improve the ea with better rule of entry

what the results of your backtest ?
Thanks for your answer in detail. I have not done backtest on the system, but forwardtest. Here is a statement for the last two days on IBFX Min account.
