This version should hopefully prove to be more stable.
v1_3 MUST have TFX_Include_v1_2.mqh saved to your include folder to operate.
v1_3 also uses stdlib.mqh which should already be in your libraries folder.
I have only let this run live for about 3 hours. So far I haven't had any problems. It will take much longer testing to work out any potential bugs in the code.
One thing I noticed is that if a bar runs away VERY fast, your next trade will probably not get hit where you set Next_Trade to activate. This may be a limitation in mq4. The only way around this that I can think of is setting pending orders. I never liked pending orders because they let the broker know exactly what you're up to. Next_Trade is coded to activate at >= or <= your pip parameter.
Please make sure to read ALL external variable comments in the code.
If you want to see the stored Global Variable info for the last order placed press f3, or go to tools/Global Variables.
nice touch in the upper left...I wanted to report I loaded the EA effortlessly and all seems to be functioning in the early minutes..
This EA is a class act and running like a swiss watch! (so far )
I will be providing a "log in" to the Demo on the very hard USD/JPY in my Blog as soon as I can discover this is well running enough.

You could set the 'Slippage' parameter in Ordersend to a bigger value, or try successively increasing it after each failure until you are 'successful' - not a recommendation though.....

That's a thought. Why not a recommendation? Because your slippage would be out of control?
A cosmetic little picky thing...to make this EA more aesthetic.
CloseByLoss should not require a minus sign...you should be able to code the value entered in the input to ALWAYS be a negative and do not even allow the minus sign character to be entered there.
As you know...If the user does not put the minus sign there and he is using CloseByLoss (not percent) then he will get the trades opening and closing immediatley.
Now I could be weird about this and many users may not find this change necessary and may not agree.

P.S. wolfe, I also agree with you about using market orders...The dealer has no way to know what this EA is doing the way you coded this...
P.P.S. by the way.... wolfe, LCFX and omelette Thank You for this EA. This is just awesome how everybody worked on this public EA together.
Stay tuned in my Blog for TFX trading...
