Money Management function not working

2 replies

7 years ago #115242

Hi

I have generated a strategy through SQ and converted that strategy to MT4 source code (.mq4).

I have compiled the strategy without any error.

When I ran the strategy in MT4, the money management function doesn’t work.

I have set the “UseMoneyManagement” to “True” and the EA is still using the default lot size of 0.1.

I tried setting the “UseMoneyManagement” to “False” and manually setting the lot size to 0.5 just to test, but the EA still used 0.1 lot size.

This strategy has a fixed stop loss.

I converted another different strategy to .mq4 and tested the Money Management function and again it doesn’t work.

Pls advise.

Are you sure that there is an SL?, is the SL is too big maybe?,

the main reason that MM wont work is ether because of no SL or SL is too big, try again with different SL level just to test.., and try to see if there is a FIXED SL in pseudo code

It works for me. Try to use “Lots decimal” set to 1 instead of 2

Risk Disclosure:
Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Hypothetical Performance Disclosure:
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. no representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.
