The article stated: "This method returns the closest value of volume from the bottom."
Method TradeSymbol:: NormalizeLots () in the case
"// Lower limit of volume:
if( lots < min_trade_volume )
{
lots = min_trade_volume;
}"
returns the closest value of volume from the top.
It looks like a bug in either article, or in the method.
That's a truly great and inspiring article, definitely one of the best so far on MQL5.com. Thanks to the Author for sharing such valuable knowledge with the rest of the community.
Could someone help clarify the last comment in the article that stated a possible improvement would be, "Using virtual trading when the Expert Advisor enters an unfavorable period of working. Then the normal work volume won't matter anymore. It will allow decreasing the drawdown." Does this mean that by using virtual trading one could "rebound" from a drawdown more quickly since the diminished volume of trading used during negative periods will no longer affect the balance curve?
Thanks
