I have looked 2-3 sites back having found nothing helpful.

So I wait for the next one who is willing to REALLY help.

Thanks for your time!

If ProfitSkew equal, for example, 1.5, then in most cases we will get ProfitTarget=1.

I suggest to change type of ProfitTarget to "double".

Thanks.

EDIT:
Here is the changed code
Code:
...
extern double  ProfitTarget            = 1;  // All orders closed when this profit target amount (in dollars) is reached
...
 if(MoneyMangement){
  ProfitTarget=(AutoLot()*100.0*ProfitSkew);
 }
...
Will be changed on next version, for now change it yourself, is an easy fix for anyone.

About the DD you are absolutely right: how you can leave the robot to work and tranquilly go on vacation if you know that on tests robot shows DD 60%, but for me up to 20% DD is acceptable. It can happens only one time in two mounts. Else if we want to create EA with 3% DD it means that we want to predict the market almost 99%. So everyone must find the balance profit/DD for himself.
You can't have more than one margin call for same money....

I installed the pointers and the EA, but it does not open orders. Which would be the problem?

Cool Pipmaker v15.1

Carlos,

Depending on what pair you are trading on, Pipmaker may or may not make a trade right away. It took 2 days before Pipmaker placed a trade on my GBPUSD pair. I have 4 pairs running right now and my EURGBP hasn't place a trade yet but my other 3 have been trading a lot. It all depends on the settings you used and backtested.

The backtesting may seem to go pretty fast that real time may look like a snail's pace. Backtest and watch how often trades are placed on your particular pair and you will get a better feel.

A couple of small things you might want to check...make sure ARSI and ATR are on your charts. ATR may not be necessary but you can place that in the same indicator window with ARSI and it won't take up any more space. If you toggled on iTrend, you might want to put that on your chart for good measure.

Anyone, correct me if I am wrong, but the Pipmaker code automatically goes to your indicator library to work (#include <stdlib.mqh>
#include <stderror.mqh>) so all that one truly needs to do is ensure that ARSI, iTrend, and ATR are in your indicator libraries, right? Putting them on your charts is nothing but "eye candy"..really.

Enforcer, is it posible to integrate ARSI inside the code of PipMaker, so to be not external indicator? I mean if you can make it in the new version, so everything will run faster. If it`s difficult forget my question. Thanks.

Thanks to Enforcer for the terrific upgrades to Pipmaker. I appreciate the "shell" format of the ea. Coming from a nonprogramming background the current format practically allows the user to use their own custom indicators and strategies with the Pipmaker money management. THANK YOU ENFORCER,

Nick
