Phoenix 2007 (new thread) - page 6

 
Hendrick:
When using MM=true the number of lots is handled by the Money management function. If you want Phoenix to use a larger number of lots, use MM=false and change the value of Lots to any value you want. If you want to use MM but still want a larger number of lots you can change MaximumRisk. Instead of 0.05 you can bring it down to 0.03 or 0.01. Do a backward test with different values for MaximumRisk and see the difference. My advice: use MM=true and MaximumRisk somewhere between 0.01 and 0.05. Don't change the code "return(lot)". This really makes no sense.

Congratulations on your superb performance in the first week of the competition. I have been observing your progress and I must salute you. The first prize is still up for grabs, so you've got some good chance of winning!

Best of luck man!

Looks good Payal. Will have to wait and see what the USDJPY will do today (important for the Contest too!).

hi hendrick, i read the instructions but wanted to be sure. to make run ur ea live on 15mins charts, i should apply ea on chart and then change the settings of each currency?

and if i do this, on preferred settings i should put false?

For live/demo set PrefSettings=true and MM=true. The EA will do the rest.
