This EA is designed to monitor the slippage of opening and closing orders, and save the records in files.

It is useful to record the slippage and evaluate brokers.

The record files are saved in the folder MT4_Data_Folder\MQL4\Files. Go to "File " --> "Open Data Folder" .

Warning: Do NOT open the files directly, otherwise it will affect the exectution of EA, just copy them to another folder and open them.

Usage:

Open a chart and load the EA on it, just need only one EA to run, it monitors all orders of all symbols.

Input:

Show in brief - If true, EA will show the latest 5 open/close slippage in point.
Record File Type - Select the file type: TXT or CSV. I recommend TXT.

Example Open Slippage: Slippage Monitor(60249928)-open.csv. It is the open slippage record.

Very good utility.

I think everyone knows such a rule of money management as "Safe". For those who are not aware, the safe assumes closing half of the position after the profit on the transaction has equaled the size of the stop. Thus, even if the price reverses and catches the stop, you will not lose money, because exactly the same amount of profit was received when closing part of the position earlier. The Safety Expert Advisor has only one setting – the closing lot. Leaving it at position 0, the adviser will

Update:ver1.53 (2023/08/16) ・概要と必要環境手動発注もしくは他ツール等からの発注に対し、指値発注予約の複製を生成します。こちらは「発注操作の簡易化」に特化したものになります。発注判断となる分析は、資料を漁る、経験則を導く、他の分析ツールやEAを併用する等、利用者ご自身で頑張ってください。なお、ver1.28より、「決済後、自動で再発注する」機能が実装されました。(有償版でのみ有効化できます) ・導入と導入後の操作導入そのものは簡単です。「自動売買可能なEA」として、適当なチャートにて動作させるだけです。(チャートの対象相場は問いません。このEAは、チャートを見ていません)。あとは、「このEAでのローカルコピー以外の発注」があれば、それに応じて「損失が出た場合に備えての追加取引の予約」という形で、指値発注が自動生成されます。導入操作上の注意として、「本EAを、複数のチャートで動作」はできません。EAがチャート自体を見ておらず、注文状況だけを見ているため、複数のチャートで動かす意味もありません。また、ターミナルとEAの設定として「自動売買」を許可しな
