OOoops, had it right on a demo account, but an over-sight for this live$ run, so thanks David, made change..... so, re-starting at $17.52 which is going to be $7.52 soon! Oh heck, a month-'n-a-half, bummer, well, not sure results are that much different of how shorts-only on pipcop is running anyway, as it too has beern wandering around the month ago equity level, so not that big a deal for now. If P.SAR had moved significantly up in equity during this error it would have been a big difference.....so, error fixed and thanks again David.

David,
I was wondering why my P.SAR wasn't doing some selling for a few days since shifting $10 to other account, so looked in log and found "we have no money". Don't know why it can't keep going with $8.40 on account while the $10 I took from it is doing ok on my InvisFX account, margins are plenty still.
Is there something in EA that is stopping the trading below $10?
I turned-off EA 'til find answer. Worse comes to worse I need send IBFX a $10 check to re-start-up things.

If Free account margin < 1000*Lots than EA prints, that your funds are insufficient. If lots are 0,01 than 1000*0,01=10USD as minimum free account margin . You can add money or try to change this line:
if(AccountFreeMargin()<(1000*Lots)) to
if(AccountFreeMargin()<(700*Lots))
If this doesn´t help, we modify more...

Thanks David, I gave it plenty of leeway by making that 500.

[Batchboy]

did I do wrong David? I replaced that code line with what you gave but made the 700 a 500, no biggee? It still won't trade, seems I only see "there is no money. Margin 8.41".

Ok, delete this part:
if(AccountFreeMargin()<(100*Lots))
{
Print("We have no money. Free Margin = ", AccountFreeMargin());
return(0);
}

David,
Somehow I got the code messed-up and it won't attach after saving then re-starting-up MT4.
Favor-por-favor? pretty please with cherry on top? do the change then test it against an $8 demo running account? You can make the demo acct anything you want by writing in the amount. Trade size .01. If you no time for this, no prob, just the corrected mq4 and I try gain.
thx
