v197 doesn't open any trades for me, v193 works fine.

If you are asking about grid-trading itself, read this thread or better still, read 'Muddyguys' thread - he knows about all there is to know on the subject.

Can't seem to get it to place orders when I set the Gridsize & gridsteps to 15,
only 10 or 20 works....

A Start time and End time would be useful feature as well as x lots depending on how much you want to risk e.g 5% instead of manually having to put in the lots each time..

Is it possible to only enter a position once and not make the EA open the same price position again...?
E.g hits buy 2.0100 , close postion once take profit hits say 2.0120, and goes back down to 2.0080 then doesn't hit the pending buy at 2.0100 because the pending 2.0100 can only be activated once.....

I see in the EA

gridOneShot = false; // is this a one shot? if so, it stops after the profitTarget has been reached

--Can this be used option be used?

There are 2 possibilities:

1/ just remove the EA after orders are placed.

2/ Use the gridoneshot function, the EA only works again when you change de uniquemagicnumber

It does not neccesarily have to keep restarting the grid, just close open orders when profit level is reached and keep the pending orders (grid) in tact. The EA is attached.

Thanks

I have the same problem.
Could someone please take a look at it?
