Hi, im totally ignorant about programming and coding so please forgive me in advance im planning to buy EAWizard , i want to ask to EAWizard users or developpers about few features. My question is lets say we use bollinger bands and bollinger bands moves according to price fluctations i want to put a buy or sell stop order 1 pips below or above current position of lower or upper bollinger band, i mean my pending order should modify itself according to move of bollinger bands is that possible ? and with help of this order type i want to eliminate slippage.

Another question about pending orders. Is there a way to avoid placing pending orders 100 pip from price action for example. This is a flaw they will ofcourse never be filled pending orders should only be placed when price action is closing in to the area of execution. Trading large portfoilios which is possible using SQX strategies is killing the MT4 servers at broker.

pending order is going with the market and indicator values you have in strategy – because you have set replace pending order to TRUE in STOP building block. You can switch off by set to FALSE, so the pending order will remain the same after first entry
and why you have your pending order so away from the current price? because you are waiting for a big break 🙂 and because you have set high value of max indicator periods?
everything lies in the settings and i dont think that some max value for distance will solve everything, only another parameter

Well whatever was just another try to as with Hidden orders to have the load lowered at Mt4 servers, I guess it is time to start MT5 finally were it does not matter since it is 64 bits.
